  Easy. You get nice little brushes like a pipe-cleaner.

    as much as I care about the environment, I’m too autistic to have a cold metal straw in my mouth

      I much prefer them. For one, I feel like they feel as cold as the drink, which is highly satisfying. And for two, I find the texture of plastic kind of nasty, as well as the thought of whether I am consuming microplastic particles through the straw

      You can get plastic, glass or bamboo ones too. Actually, the metal ones I have come with a little silicon extenter on the end :).

  The metal straws I own came with a brush that’s the right size to clean them.

  They are usually dishwasher safe.
