This is not a paid post, but it might sound like one, because I can hardly contain my excitement about a product called Wisdom Wand. It is a hand blown glass straw with what they call a "specialty filter" at the bottom, so you can drink frozen beverages without getting chunks of ice stuck in your straw.
Its original purpose, I think, was to allow people to brew tea without the need of a teabag, sort of like one of those devices they use to sip yerba mate...bombillas, I think they are called. I had considered trying to use a bombilla for smoothies, but did not know how to be sure it was clean.
This wisdom wand works great with hot or cold tea and is especially good for drinking liquids that might otherwise strain one's teeth. But I mostly use my wisdom wand for iced drinks. Even when filled with milky treats, the wand cleans up fast. I swirl mine in a glass of hot water with a few drops of dish washing detergent until it looks clean and then pop it in the dishwasher to be sure it gets disinfected.
