Description
Empress 5.25-Inch Black Cocktail Straws & Stirrers
Keep beverage service stocked with slim, unwrapped black straws for sipping and stirring. Each order includes one convenient 1,000-count box.
Product Overview
Empress ECK525BK cocktail straws combine a short 5.25-inch format with a slim profile for beverage service. The black, straight design works as a straw or stirrer wherever its length and diameter suit the drinkware. Restaurants, bars, cafes and catering teams can use the 1,000-count box to replenish a beverage station.
This item is sold by the box. The manufacturer's master case contains 10 boxes, but the quantity included with this listing is 1,000 straws. Choose the short cocktail format for an appropriate glass height; compare longer straws for tall drinkware and wider formats for drinks that need them.
Because the straws are unwrapped, keep the box closed between refills and protect unused stock from splashes, dust and unnecessary handling. Before a recurring order, check your glass depth, lid opening and any dispenser dimensions.

Related Beverage Supplies & Buying Guidance
Compare longer straw formats and add beverage service supplies to the same order. Related items are purchased separately; no universal cup, lid-slot or dispenser fit is claimed.
Planning estimate: At one straw per serving, one 1,000-count box supplies up to 1,000 servings before allowing for waste or extra straws. This is an ordering estimate, not a manufacturer performance specification.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many straws are included in one order?
One order includes one box of 1,000 unwrapped black straws/stirrers. Empress packs 10 of these boxes in its 10,000-count master case; this listing is for one box.
How long and wide are these cocktail straws?
They are 5.25 inches long. The Empress straw guide lists a nominal 0.125-inch diameter for its milk/cocktail format. Compare both dimensions with your intended drinkware.
Are the straws individually wrapped?
No. These are unwrapped straws supplied together in a box. Keep unused stock protected and use clean handling practices when replenishing the service area.
Can they be used for both sipping and stirring?
Empress identifies ECK525BK as a slim straw/stirrer. Use it for cocktail and beverage service where a short, narrow straw is suitable. Check your glass height and drink consistency before ordering.
Will they fit any cup or lid?
No universal cup, lid-slot or dispenser fit has been verified. Compare the 5.25-inch length and nominal 0.125-inch diameter with your setup. A taller drink may need a longer straw.
What material are they made from, and what are the temperature limits?
Distributor specifications identify the material as plastic. Exact resin, wall thickness and numeric temperature limits: Please contact us for manufacturer specifications. Do not assume microwave, freezer or high-temperature suitability.
Does Wees Express deliver locally and ship nationwide?
Yes. Local delivery serves eligible Metro Detroit and Southeast Michigan business orders, and nationwide shipping is available throughout the United States subject to destination and order eligibility. Current options and charges appear at checkout; review the delivery and shipping policies for details.
