Our Tea straw is both a straw and a sieve to help strain smaller particles and sift through your tea drink. It's also suitable for other drinks such as Mate, Yerba, Green teas, Herbal teas and Loose teas. Made from premium quality stainless steel (specifically the premium #304 (18/8) grade stainless steel kind), our stainless steel straw strains while you drink! The submerged end is flared, with small holes or slots that allow the brewed liquid in, but block loose leaf teas and other mixtures.
A tea straw - also known as Bombilla in Spanish, a bomba in Portuguese, and a bombija or, more generally, a masassa (straw) in Arabic - is a type of drinking straw used to drink mate. The lower end acts as a metal filter due to its perforated finish. It is used to separate the mate infusion from leaves and stems and acts like a metal screen of most teapots.
When we make the choice to switch to reusables, we are actually investing in our children's and the next generation's future where a sustainable and ecologically-balanced world is possible.
Aside from environmental and communal benefits, reusables are also better for our own personal health. Consuming food or drinks in or through plastic creates a host of health conditions, so using reusables such as the stainless steel tea straw helps you stay away from single-use products such as plastic straws.
Because our stainless steel tea straws are toxic-free, reusable and recyclable, you can use them with more confidence and be free from the ecological burden.
