Whether you’re getting an iced coffee on the go, treating yourself to boba tea or just trying to drink more water every day, a cute reusable tumbler, glass or bottle is an eco-friendly way to keep hydrated. All these picks have a straw included because, let’s face it, it’s just more fun. I’ve also found options from both kawaii character brands and small designers.
Box Lunch (US) has a wide range of pop culture and kawaii character drinkware featuring Sanrio, Totoro, Disney and many more. Their exclusive Strawberry Shortcake collection is extremely cute and these on-trend tumblers with handle even have a little fruit on top to protect the straw.
Glass tumblers with a bamboo lid and straw are also really popular just now and there’s loads of Etsy shops with original and personalised designs. So Cute Company (UK) has some fun designs on frosted glass including cats and capybaras!
These Happy Day glass cups from Fujibee (US) are nicely understated so you can feel cute and sophisticated at the coffee shop or at home. They include a faux leather cozy (in pink, blue or white), glass straw and plastic lid.
If you’re serious about your coffee, A Cute Shop (TW) have a Snoopy coffee tumbler that’s packed with useful features. It’s insulated to keep both hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold, has a built-in straw and even a little wrist strap.
Possible the most kawaii option, an Ebbo the frog tumbler from ShopZoki (US)! Not only is the frog lid adorable but there’s glitter in the tumbler walls. The straw is also wide enough for boba.
ARTBOX (UK) have a lot of different types of kawaii character drinkware so it was very hard to choose. I was really taken with these little travel cups, which are available in Totoro and Sanrio designs. Each cup has a colourful lid and straw and you get all 3 in a set so it’s perfect for anyone who gets a bit lazy about washing out their cup as you’ll be able to rotate – and they’re dishwasher safe too.
A collapsible water bottle is great for travel as it can fit a lot without taking up much room in your bag. Claire’s (UK) have lots of affordable kawaii animal designs that come with a built-in straw and carabiner, and are all really affordable too.
If you already have a cute bottle but it doesn’t have a straw, Japanese brand Hashy Topin (JP – requires forwarding service) has reusable silicone straws with kawaii character cases including Miffy, Sanrio, San-X and Moomins. You get 2 straws and a cleaner and the straw folds up to fits inside the case so you can keep it in your bag. Meccha Japan (JP) also have a couple of the Sumikko Gurashi straws and ship internationally.
