I would say it depends on the height of the glass/mug it will be used in. I love the swizzle sticks at Forbidden Island, but they're too short for the standard Forbidden Island mug. Once the ice melts down and the hit bottom, you can no longer see them sticking out the top of the mug. But just to give you a real answer, I referred to my father's collection of over 100 swizzles that I inherited and that he collected over a few decades between the '60s-'90s. They average 6.75"-7.25". Seems the standard is 7". Hope this helps.
