Could I drink a smoothie through the drinking spout / lid?

Might be hard. The opening is small so your straw size couldn't be very big. Also, the lid that flips backward is awkward because of it's size.

I believe you could drink a smoothie through the spout. And if it clogs up at all you always have the option of taking the lid completely off to get to the last drop!

The drinking spout is about the size of a large size straw similar to what you might get a a Dunkin Donut coolatta or. McDonald smoothie.

Dont think so,granted the opening is biggerto pour out thing. but i think it would clog up still with a smoothie.But other then that its a great thermos.

Not with the lid on...it's just glass otherwise so I don't see why not. I personally haven't done it.

No. Most likely fruit might block the spigot. Although I hope to serve a fruity sangria in mine. My thought is if the fruit floats they should remain clear of the spigot. If not, I will scoop them out.

Probably not wide enough for a thick smoothie. I still use the lids and straw cleaners but the straws themselves are actually sharp and I cut my self on the edge.

No. The pour spout in the glass will allow liquid to flow out even with the lid turned away from the spout.

no... there's a small hole for air to get in while you drink from a (pretty generous) slit near the edge. The flow of liquid is pretty good so that shouldn't be a problem. You may be able to fit a straw in it, but not a big one.The thing I hated was - the lids didn't seal properly so it was always like drinking from a dribble glass. The ALL did it too, so it wasn't just one bad lid. I ended up returning them...

No....I just use this as sort of a travel glass, pouring from the smoothie maker into it so I can wash the blender. It has no blade and isn't supposed to fit on the blender.

Yes, you can sip with the lid in place. It doesn't spill but if it fell over, It would. The bottom pad came off the bottom and the handle is peeling. Also, you can NOT put this in the dishwasher because water gets inside and will leak out when you are using the cup. I would not get this one again.

On mine, the clear plastic circle/handle was detachable from the rest of the black plastic lid. That way you could add ingredients through the hole/opening with the blender running.

It works well in the sense that you can remove the straw and shake up the smoothie if the ingredients separate. I'm drinking one right now!

The hole is triangular and about finger-sized (1/2 inch wide and 1/4 inch high or so). I would think you could drink a thick smoothie out of it, but not sure. There's a pin-sized hole on the opposite side to allow airflow.

Sure, you can make any kind of a smoothie! :-) My Mom makes green ones all of the time with hers. It is super convenient to drink right out of the container you blend it in too.

Yes. You would have to put the straw in the lid opening. Just remember, this cup is not spill proof. If you turn it over, the liquid will pour out.

Possible, but not optimal. There is a small hole meant for pouring contents into the lid or another cup.

I'm not sure if I understand the question completely... But the straw consists of 2 pieces: the long part inside the cup and part that it fits into which has a valve that keeps it from leaking and the top part comes out of the lid where the child drinks from. You can't remove the straw unless you take it apart. That being said, the straw is pretty flexible and I'm not sure if it could handle the viscosity of a smoothie.

If the smoothie is on the thin side it might but a thick smoothie,no way. Picture sipping thru an almost flat straw. I have major water leaking issues with this cup, definitely when it is dropped but even when I turn them upside down. Try the wow cups for leaking only when dropped.

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.
