Reusable straw

Reusable straw

A must-have fashion accessory of the moment! Reusable straws replace the infamous disposable plastic straws that pollute our planet, especially our oceans. Reusable straws have undeniable qualities: zero waste, economical, ecological, practical, and also a little aesthetic.

Disposable straws were banned from sale in France on January 1, 2020. This is why reusable straws were invented. They are a little more expensive but will last over time. Your investment will be worth it thanks to the lifespan of your reusable straw.

Reusable straws are used in bars and restaurants to add a touch of style to cocktails. Since they're a durable product, reusable straw manufacturers aren't afraid to develop more aesthetically pleasing designs, paying attention to their shape and color.

Today, reusable straws have become a fashion accessory, often seen in photos on social media, with influencers or in ads to showcase cocktails on the beach or by the pool.

Why choose a reusable straw instead of a disposable one?

Think about your children at restaurants or at home when they chew on their straws. Do you really know what product is inside? We won't talk about it because it's full of toxic products.

The advantage of a reusable straw made of bamboo, glass or stainless steel is that they are non-toxic materials.

Stainless steel straw

The reusable straw is made of stainless steel, which means your straw won't rust (or you've been scammed). Be careful to make sure it's only stainless steel and not a mixture with other metals. Reusable stainless steel straws pose no health risks.

The stainless steel straw can be stored and reused for life. It is also shock and heat resistant. The stainless steel straw is suitable for children.

The stainless steel straw stands out from the rest because it's not adjustable. It's often used for thick, cold drinks like smoothies or milkshakes, because stainless steel keeps your drink fresh.

Bamboo straw

Bamboo straws are among the least expensive reusable straws on the market. For good reason, they come from China. Did you know that bamboo is difficult to compost? Bamboo fibers don't degrade in a few weeks like wood. No, bamboo takes several months or even years to decompose.

If you're pursuing zero waste and ecology, I don't recommend bamboo straws. Importing bamboo to France represents a significant carbon footprint.

Bamboo gives a somewhat special texture in the mouth that is not appreciated by everyone.

Plastic straw

Reusable plastic straws are a derivative of disposable plastic straws. I don't recommend them for several reasons: They're made from toxic materials, they're non-recyclable, and they're not suitable for children due to their toxic properties.

Glass straw

What reusable glass straw users love most is being able to see their drink through it. Glass straws are generally transparent.

Glass straws are used as a chic accessory in cocktails, which is why you'll find them mainly in bars and restaurants. They are less commonly used in private homes.

Glass straws are not recommended for children as they can break or shatter.

Silicone straw

The silicone straw is yet another alternative to plastic straws. It's toxin-free and lead-free, easily bendable, and won't damage teeth. It's ideal for both adults and children. You can use it with hot and/or cold drinks. The silicone straw won't float in your glass, and you won't get any aftertaste.

Is the reusable straw a washable straw?

Yes, there are washable straws. Simply rinse your reusable straw with water; for smaller models, you need to use a brush (often sold with the reusable straw). You can put stainless steel and glass straws in the dishwasher.

What are edible straws?

In addition to reusable straws, there are also edible straws that disintegrate after two hours in your cold drink. A zero-waste straw, since they don't get thrown away, but disappear with your drink!

There are straws made of legs, straws made of ice cubes, and straws made of flavored sugars. Some people are not short of ideas for replacing the mythical plastic straw.
