Can I fit a straw into the lid? I'm looking for something for my morning smoothies which I drink on my way into work. Thanks!

You probably could put a standard plastic straw through the opening. Although, if you're transporting the container to-from work, you might consider a plastic double-walled cup instead of a glass one.

I doubt it, it is a small, oval opening. Main issue we have had is that the lid is not very secure. The lid is fine to use in a limited way such as to transport the cup, but you wouldn't want to tilt it and drink out of it without keeping a finger or two on top to make sure it doesn't accidentally open up.

As long as the straw is not too rigid. The opening is like the plastic lid of a to-go coffee cup.

Well, the glass broke on the same day that I got it. It only takes a slip out of your hand onto your table for the glass to pop and the whole container to explode/implode on you. Not recommended.

No, small opening. Perfect HOT coffee/tea travel cup! Really keeps coffee hot for long while.

You may need to use a straw with a wider opening for smoothies because the straw that comes with the tumbler is rather narrow. The opening will accommodate a thicker straw, but you'd have to buy it separately.

the lid screws on and you have to flip the straw upright to drink. I have not had any problems with leaks and use daily and throw in my lunch bag. I like this bottle because keeps smoothies cold through the afternoon.

I purchased a "straw brush" special for this and it is "great" and needed!!! I would think it could handle a smoothie, depending on how thick the smoothie is!! The straw size is not really large in width. ??? I will keep this post and try my smoothie for you and let you know!!

No. the lid is connected to a base that the bottom of the straws rest upon. I cannot disconnect my lid. You can put your straws in the glass container, but you cannot use the lid so your straws would be exposed to the dust. My husband used to be able to circumvent everything, to make what I wanted but his health has deteriorated...I am conditioned to think that anything is possible with a creative person, but I would not be able to reconfigure this product.

Agree with B. Berry. I have just bought standard straws and they have all fit without a problem. Love this product

Yes, a straw will fit into the drinking slot on this mug. The mug will keep coffee hot for about an hour and I use it daily.

a straw would fit but it is made for drinking out of the bottle. I was not happy with this product. The colors are awesome but peal after a few washings. They also dent very quickly if dropped.

Yes, you can! I just checked it out... I could easily fit one of the Starbucks reusable straws in there, and I'm sure an even larger one would work just fine.

It's an average straw width but I have used it for smoothies without any problems. The lid would easily fit a wider straw if you decide to buy one later.

Yes, a straw will fit quite easily. The one thing I don't like about this travel mug is that it now a one piece lid, and the "swivel closure" which alleviated spills when tipped over is no longer available. Bummer! If someone knows of a supplier to find these swivel lidded thermoserve travel mugs, I'd love to hear from them.

Yes you can, but it's a little tricky. There's a hole on the top where you pour in the hot coffee. That's where you put the straw/spicket in. It's roughly 1.5" to 2" wide. You'll have to find a tea ball for the loose tea in that's small enough to fit in it. Usually those tea balls are made of metal and it comes with chains. I suggest cutting the chains and using a string instead. Otherwise, the lid won't close. I hope it helps.

It has a small slot on the top side of the lid, so I guess you could put a straw in there. It looks like it's more to sip out of.

I used the cups and lids for frozen smoothies which I used regular straws.. not sure how much bigger a bubble tea straw is from the regular I used... bout the size of a McDonald's straw

Yes should be able to. The straw is a two piece but straight-through straw, no leak-proof vault like regular sippy cup, so smoothie should be able to go through. (It's leak-proof by closing the lid onto the straw) Just make sure to use a straw brush to clean the straw really well afterwards to avoid mold.

No. It has a small oval shaped opening (much like styrofoam coffee cups) which would be too small for a regular sized straw.

Depends on how thick the smoothie is. The straw is about the same as a regular drinking straw.
