When it comes to doing your bit for the environment, every ounce of effort counts, and a set of reusable metal straws for the home is an absolute essential these days. These stainless steel ones feel really sturdy (unlike the paper variety that tends to collapse on us by the third sip), and they even come with a little brush so you can scrub the inside of the straw.
