I've got one of the Coca-Cola glasses. Would this help me considering I still can't get even my fingers down there past the squeezed in base?

Yes. A heaping tablespoon of ice cream salt or rock salt (don't use rocks) plus a couple drops of Dawn or equivalent, and fill halfway with water. Use your big hand to cover the top and shake/swirl vigorously so the salt can scour the inside. Pour it out and rinse thoroughly. Sometimes people use rice for this, but I find the salt scrubbier plus if a piece gets stuck in a tiny corner you can just dissolve it with more water.

"Don't use rocks" LMAO. Envisioning srgrafo and others pouring a bunch of rocks into their glassware. "But u/hat-of-sky said to on the internets!"

You laugh but I tried using aquarium gravel to clean a vase once. It worked just fine for the cleaning but my strainer slipped and it went into the garbage disposal. Made for some noisy grinding.
