Olen 3-Hole Coffee Stirrers, 7 in Brown Sip Straws, 100 Count

What are these coffee stirrers?

These coffee stirrers are 7 in (17.8 cm) brown plastic sticks with a 3-hole design, so each one stirs your drink and doubles as a slim sip straw. A pack holds 100, enough to stock a home or office coffee bar without buying a 1,000-count case.

Will a 7 in stirrer reach the bottom of my cup?

At 7 in, they reach the bottom of paper cups, mugs, many travel cups and bar glasses. For a very tall tumbler or a large travel mug, measure the inside depth first. If it's close to 7 in, the stirrer won't stand far enough above the rim to hold comfortably.

How long will a 100-count pack last?

The math assumes one stirrer per drink. For a single event, such as a brunch or a catered meeting, plan one per guest plus extras for refills.

Where they work well

• Home coffee bar or breakfast table
• Office coffee bar, reception counter or conference room
• Cafe station or catering beverage table
• Bar cart, for stirring a cocktail and taking a quick taste

The brown color blends in with coffee, tea, lattes, espresso drinks and cocoa, so a cup of stirrers on the counter looks tidy. They also mix iced drinks and cocktails. For a full setup checklist, see our guide to coffee stirrers and straw toppers.

What these stirrers are not

They are disposable plastic. They are not wooden, bamboo, paper or metal stirrers, not electric mixers, and not heavy-duty sticks for blenders or thick shakes. They also aren't individually wrapped, so if your workplace or cafe requires wrapped straws, choose a wrapped product instead.

If you drink from a tumbler with a reusable straw, flower straw toppers are a separate add-on that covers the straw tip between sips. Other small kitchen and desk items are in home and everyday finds.

Tips for hot drinks and storage

The sip feature is for small tastes. A narrow straw pulls liquid from below the surface, where coffee is hotter than at the rim, so take a short test sip first. Keep the pack sealed or decant the stirrers into a lidded container so the unwrapped sticks stay clean on an open counter.
