<p>A drinking straw (10) formed by a hollow tube (11) open at both ends has a flange (12) with spikes (15) projecting downwardly from its underside (14) for use as a muddler. The stirring capability added by the flange (12) is enhanced by the addition of ribs (21) extending to it from the tube (11). The cross-section of the tube (11) is round, but a tube (51) of polygonal cross-section, specifically square or triangular, and with ribs (55), may be used instead, and the top (54) of the tube (51) in this case may be of round cross-section for ease of sucking.</p> |
