The straws are smooth, easy to rinse, and suitable for a range of drinks from water and juices to smoothies and cocktails. Handle with care to avoid chipping or breakage.

Advantages

These reusable glass straws resist flavour transfer and do not leach chemicals, making them a hygienic alternative to some plastic or metal options. The transparent glass design lets users see cleanliness at a glance. They are easy to clean with running water or a dedicated brush and do not retain odours. The simple, neutral appearance fits a variety of table settings and beverage styles.

Suitable for

• Drinking water and fruit juices
• Smoothies and milkshakes (not for extremely hot liquids)
• Cold cocktails and mixed drinks
• Household use and cafés with reusable-dish practices

When it may not be suitable

These glass straws are not intended for use with boiling or very hot liquids; thermal shock may cause cracking. They are fragile compared with metal or silicone alternatives and require careful handling, especially around hard surfaces or when washed in a dishwasher where they can knock against other items.

How to use
