I would like to take a moment to introduce everyone to the company Glass Dharma and their wonderful range of Glass Straws.
I love using straws for my drinks, but I hate the taste of plastic straws and I worry about the overuse of plastic and what they may mean for our health. So these straws are a wonderful addition to our home.
I was fortunate to get selected to sample 4 different straws from Glass Dharma!
The straw you see above is a ‘decorative dots’ straw, with green dots. I thought it would look perfect with Sisi’s homemade Green Tea ‘Frappucino.’ The colors work well together and it is the perfect thickness to be used for a blended drink.
What do I mean by ‘thickness’?? Well, Glass Dharma straws come in four different opening widths so you can drink your favorite beverages with them!
For Bubble Tea drinkers, there is a 14mm!
For Smoothie lovers there is the 12mm!
For Ice Tea there is the 9.5mm!
and finally the ‘sipper’ which is a sweet little 7mm!
The straw featured above in Sisi’s drink is actually a 9″ long by 9.5mm Ice Tea straw and it still does great for frappucinos. 🙂
They also have slightly bent straws that they call ‘beautiful bends’ I received one of these straws, but sadly it broke the first day I used it when my cup jumped out of my hands (oddly too, I was turning away from the fridge and PEW! it jumped and landed on the floor) and it shattered upon impact. 🙁
Thankfully Glass Dharma offers a LIFETIME Guarantee against these straws breaking. Now no no no they are not claiming these straws to be unbreakable, they are completely willing to send you a replacement in case for some reason one of your straws does break.
Like in my case… where the cup and straw decided to leap from my hand. D:
Anywho…
Aside from my unfortunate accident with my bended straw, I am absolutely loving our Glass Dharma straws, and am considering getting a bunch so I never have to buy plastic disposable straws again!

I would love to try the smoothie and iced tea straws – especially the ones with bends in them – those are the two main drinks for me in the summer time. Thanks for the giveaway!

I think I would choose the Smoothie set of four decorative dots drinking straws! I love that they are color coded, with three kids drinks are always getting passed around, my youngest just picks up a glass, it doesn’t matter if its hers or not. My son is grossed it by drinking out of someone else’s glass. He will not drink it if someone else drank out of it, he throws it out. These would save me money on straws and drinks!! Love it!
decorative dots. they are pretty
I like the colored dots straws because they are so fun!
I just bought a few of these. They’re awesome! Hoping to grow my collection!
I would love to try the decorative dot straws. They would be great for ‘labeling’ drinks.

I would like the Set of four simple elegance 8″ & 9″ drinking straws with a cleaning brush because there would be straw for everyone in my family to use.
Thanks, Karen
