Minecraft latest update 1.17 will surely bring a bunch of new features but you can access some of those new features right now by playing in snapshots if you are using the Java version.

Minecraft: How to Create Tinted Glass
In order to make Tinted Glass in Minecraft, you need to have at least four Amethyst Shards and One Glass Block.

To make Tinted Glass, you will have to place Sand in a Smelter. Now, combine all four Amethyst Shards and one block of Glass in a Crafting table. Doing this will create two Tinted Glass.

In this circular area, you will find Budding Amethyst blocks. You would not be able to move the Budding Amethyst blocks, so you need to go back to the location to accumulate more if required. The best thing about Tinted Glass in Minecraft is it can be recovered like any other block if it broke.
