ABSTRACT:
A drinking straw arrangement including a drinking tube containing a powdered flavoring laminated to an interior surface of the drinking tube for dissolving upon contact with a fluid directed through the tube, with end caps removably mounted relative to the tube for preserving freshness of the flavoring therewithin. A modification of the invention includes spaced inserts, wherein the inserts define metering chambers therebetween as the inserts maintain fluid about the inserts for enhancing dissolving of flavoring contained within the inserts. The inserts are formed of a honeycomb structure defined by conduits surrounded by columns of powdered flavoring, such as chocolate. Alternative inserts may be utilized into woven strands of flavoring to enhance surface area contact of the flavoring with a fluid directed therethrough.
