I use this straw for all cold drinks, not just boba. It works amazing for frappes, iced coffee, boba etc! I got the pink colour as it was perfect for my aesthetic. I dont have any issues with the straw. The only issue I have is that the packaging it came in used a LOT of bubble wrap. Completely unnecessary for a silicone straw that cant be easily damaged. For a company that cares for the environment, please try use cardboard shipping packages
