The cup size indicates the approximate amount of liquid held if filled to the brim. If unsure of the size to order, it is always best to choose larger than you think you may need. A spilled drink can be hazardous, and no one wants to spill during a special event. Please check with your caterer, event planner or bartender for more detailed recommendations. If more than one drinking station is set up, be sure to order enough cups for both.
