To find the cost of the large box that contains 25 bottles of drinks, you can multiply the number of bottles by the price of each bottle.

Cost of one bottle = $1.75
Number of bottles in a box = 25

Now, calculate the total cost:

\[ \text{Total cost} = \text{Number of bottles} \times \text{Cost per bottle} = 25 \times 1.75 \]

Calculating that:

\[ 25 \times 1.75 = 43.75 \]

Thus, the total cost of the large box is:

\[ x = 43.75 \]

So the final answer is:

\[ \text{$}43.75 \]
