FAQs

Why do customers love your glass straws?

Our glass straws make everyday drinking into something special.

They’re solid and weighty and smooth. Customers love watching juices and smoothies shoot up the clear straws. And we genuinely look forward to drinking out of our straws—it’s one of those simple daily pleasures.


We can’t always describe the ‘wow’ factor. But it’s there. It’s why Hummingbird Straws are a great way to treat yourself, and why they make the perfect gift for someone else. Because whenever people try Hummingbird Straws for themselves, they get it.

How durable are glass straws?

Hummingbird Glass Straws are shatter-resistant and designed to last a lifetime. They’re made of borosilicate glass, the strongest glass commercially available!

Can I use glass straws for hot drinks?

Absolutely. While you can’t use a plastic straw in a hot drink, a glass straw is perfectly safe—it won’t warp, crack, or melt. People with sensitive teeth often love glass straws for this very reason—no more hot tea or coffee on your teeth. Using a straw in coffee also helps to reduce teeth staining.

Can I take glass straws with me to cafes and restaurants?

Please do! Those single-use plastic straws used in restaurants are horrible for the environment. When you take one with you, not only are you making a difference, but you can encourage cafes and restaurants to make a difference, too.

For best care of your glass straw, put it in a case or wrap it in a soft cloth before you put it in your purse, backpack, briefcase, or lunch box.

How do I clean my glass straws?

It’s really easy to clean your glass straws. Just rinse it with hot water after every use. You can also pop it in the dishwasher if you prefer. And if you sometimes get bits of fruit stuck in your straw like we do, you can use the free cleaning brush we send with every pack of Hummingbird Straws.

Are glass straws okay for my kids?

Glass straws are fantastic for kids! Of course, younger children should be supervised when using any kind of straw or glassware. But our glass straws are shatter-resistant, so they're safe for kids to use. And unlike plastic straws, they don’t contain toxic chemicals that can seep into your child’s drink or mouth—they’re BPA-free, toxin-free, and lead-free.

Do glass straws really make a difference?

Absolutely. In the US alone, about 500 million single-use plastic straws are disposed of every day. They can’t be recycled, so this adds to landfill, and is also devastating for our sea life—plastic waste is responsible for the deaths of about 100,000 marine mammals and 1 million seabirds each year

When you choose reusable glass straws instead instead of single-use plastic straws, and encourage friends and family to make the switch, you’re saving thousands of straws from adding to this number.
