A standard Red Solo Cup holds 16 ounces of liquid, which is the most common size used for beer, cocktails, and mixed drinks at parties and events
. However, Red Solo Cups come in various sizes, including:
- 9 oz (often used for tastings and kids)
- 12 oz (a versatile size for soft drinks and cocktails)
- 16 oz (the classic and most popular size)
- 18 oz (used for games like beer pong or larger servings)
- 20 oz and larger (jumbo cups for extra-thirsty moments)
The 16 oz size is typically the one people refer to when they mention a "Solo cup," but depending on the occasion, other sizes might be more suitable. Additionally, many 16 oz Solo Cups have measurement lines that can help with portion control, although these lines were not originally designed specifically for alcohol measurement
. In summary, the most recognized Solo Cup size is 16 ounces, but they are available in a range of sizes from 9 to 20 ounces and beyond
