Mr Slushed Cocktail Cups 7oz 1,000’s

A box of a thousand is a practical unit for event trading: one box covers a weekend at a festival or a busy stretch on a seaside pitch without repeat ordering. That is the first reason operators buy Mr Slushed Cocktail Cups in 7oz by the case. The second is what the cup does on the counter, because presentation carries a great deal of the work with frozen drinks, and a clear cup is what makes a bright slush or layered cocktail look worth buying.

Material and clarity

The material is high-clarity PET, chosen for its rigidity and its resistance to cracking when cups are stacked, carried or handled by customers on the move. That same clarity keeps colour vivid, which matters when the drink itself is doing the marketing. PET is widely recyclable, so disposal fits the waste streams most venues already run.

Why this size, and when to go bigger

Each cup holds 7oz, or 200ml, which is a deliberate size: large enough to feel like a proper serve, small enough to keep portions consistent from opening to close. This is a cocktail size, not an all-afternoon size. It suits a drink with a price point behind it, a bar where people buy more than one over an evening, and any event where you would rather sell two rounds than one large cup that warms up before it is finished. Where the drink is a family purchase to be carried around a site for half an hour, a larger cup with a domed lid usually makes more sense, and the larger slush cup sizes cover that end of the service.

Identical serves from a temporary team

Fixed-size disposables do something a glass never does: they make every serve identical without anyone having to think. That protects both the yield you calculated from a case of syrup and the customer’s sense that the drink is the same one they had yesterday. If your machine output is being planned against a case of concentrate, holding portion size steady is the only way those numbers survive contact with a busy Saturday and a queue of temporary staff. It is the same reason mobile bars and catering operations that cannot wash glassware on site end up on disposables whatever the venue.

Storing them on site

Store them flat and dry, keep them in their sleeves until needed so they stay nested and clean, and take out a working quantity at a time instead of opening every sleeve at once. Cups are bulky and light, so the constraint is usually space in the van or the stockroom rather than weight.

Finishing the serve

Matching dome lids are available separately and are worth adding wherever drinks leave the counter or are handed to children. Add a straw with a bore wide enough for a thick drink and the serve is complete. These cups sit within the wider Mr Slushed range, so cups, lids and slush and cocktail syrups can be ordered together on one delivery instead of being chased from separate suppliers mid-season.

Cost the full serve before you price it

Disposables are where the margin on a frozen drink is most often lost, so tot up the cup, the lid and the straw together before the drink goes on the board, particularly if you are pricing a premium frozen serve rather than a bulk one. Our breakdown of takeaway cup and lid margins goes through the arithmetic on a takeaway serve and applies just as neatly to a cold one.
