By your second glass

The drink takes a little getting used to, though. Prepare yourself before you take your first sip, or you might grimace at the sour taste ... By your second glass, you'll be able to swallow this drink as smoothly as a local.

HI,

Is it right to interpret "by your second glass" as "when you drink the second glass?" Thanks.
