A Few Minutes of Use. A Longer-Lasting Problem.

Think about the last drink you ordered. Did it come with a plastic straw?

You used it for a few minutes. Then it went in the trash.

Now picture every iced coffee, smoothie and soda served across New York City today. That's a lot of plastic for a lot of very short sips.

The problem isn't the drink. It's the disposable plastic we've gotten used to.

We think it's time for a different choice.

Why NOMS
