Are these large enough to easily drink thicker drinks like frappes? Anixously looking for strong, long, wide enough srtaw to sip frozen drinks!!

No, they aren't quite wide enough for a thick drink; they're only slightly wider than a regular straw.

It is a good quality straw. Not sure what frappe is if it helps the straw is 1/4 inch.

These are 10 inches long, but not very wide. I doubt they would work well with frozen drinks as things might get stuck in the straw. Great for clear liquids though.

I ordered this straw three times and I have received two different kinds. Recent order was wider and thicker which would be enough for frozen drinks.

They are not as good as regular ice cubes, since there's a fairly thick layer of plastic insulating the inner frozen part from the drink. They are cold, but not real-ice cold. Also note that they're also a little bigger than a regular cube, so they don't fit in smaller glasses. But they're very cute!

They are not hard like an acrylic, but not super squishy, an older kid can squish if he really wanted to but there is no point cause the opening you drink out of is big enough to to pour. They have never popped open on me, but I wouldn't put it in a gym bag or back back that gets bashed around. I have a bunch we use for refilling for cold water, that is all I put iin them.

NO! I have 8 of these. Straw is reg straw size. Won't accommodate thick beverages. Also, it would create mold in straw. These are fantastic for normal liquids and fit in my car's cup holder.

Yes, I would recommend this for smoothies! I could not believe after 3 days I still had ice water in this thermos. To make the smoothies stay thicker longer, you may just want to put some ice in the thermos for 10-15 minutes to get it cold then remove the ice and put the smoothie in, should stay firm pretty long. These thermos' are great, best I've ever used and highly recommended for hot OR cold ;>) Enjoy your COLD smoothies ;>)

I do not have the glass in front of me but venture they are 12 to 14 ounces. The glass is rather thick but the size accommodates a nice drink. It would be a great iced tea sized. Hope this helps!

These are pretty much the thickness of any normal glass or cup. I've had mugs in the past that were so thick you ended up spliiling over with each sip, but that is not the case with these.

They're pretty large. If you have trouble swallowing usually I would recommend breaking it in half. It's really easy to break and I've done that a few times myself.

no, they are not. they are, per the below, perfect for drinking out of. i also use them to take yogurt parfaits to work, which works out well too.

They are not fragile. I've broken only one out of a dozen. 4 ft drop to concrete. Easily as sturdy as any glass of like size. Slightly heavier in my opinion. Hold the cold like crazy.

I use these to do the final freeze on ice cream which is thicker that water. I also use them to freeze ice cream liquid mix which is about like milk and they do not saturate before it freezes. They are quite sturdy - I'd say give it a shot and see what happens - allow a little room for expansion.

Yes, they are very thick glass. Perfect for the freezer but would work for hot too.

I can't believe people are saying these are big enough for shakes/smoothies. (Makes me wonder if everyone is reviewing the same product.) They are NOT big enough for thick drinks.

They are pretty wide - probably too wide for a sippy cup. But they are perfect for something with blended ice like a smoothie. 3/8 of an inch wide.

Yes, they are. They are perfect for mixing my shakes in..the smaller cups just weren't big enough.

They are pretty big it is very possible that they would, I have not used them as of yet just been making a stock pile of them. Only problem I would forsee is that sometimes they seem to come or with a "bubble" inside the cup hope that helps
