A cocktail napkin is a small napkin, typically 5x5 inches, used for drinks, appetizers, or desserts at parties or events. They’re super handy for catching drips from wine glasses, wiping crumbs, or even doubling as a coaster. You can get them in paper for easy cleanup or cloth for a fancier, reusable vibe.
Cocktail napkins are perfect for holding drinks to catch condensation, wiping hands or lips after snacks, or serving with appetizers and desserts. They’re great for cocktail hours, weddings, or casual parties.
A good rule of thumb is 3-4 cocktail napkins per guest for drinks and appetizers. If you’re using them for dessert or cake, add one more per person. For example, a wedding with 100 guests would need about 300-400 napkins for drinks and another 100 for dessert. Order a few extra to be safe

Arranging cocktail napkins is easy and fun! Stack them neatly on the bar or appetizer table for easy grabbing. For a fancy touch, fan them out in a semi-circle or layer them in a cute basket.
