the only real trick is you Need to have thickness to anything clear like that. Past that you can start with a solid glass material and just lower the IOR a touch. Possibly a dielectric material would also give some good results.

The biggest trick here though is having correct thickness. I see people trying that all the time with something only 1mm thick, or pushing certain areas to 1in thick. Unless you're making a plastic wine glass or a plastic marble you probably won't want something that thin/thick if you want it to look real. The image you're showing is probably 3-5mm thick.
