ABSTRACT:
A paper cup with a sipping straw integrally formed thereon is disclosed. The paper cup with a sipping straw integrally formed thereon is manufactured either by attaching a separate paper member (11), or by forming an expanded portion (21). The sipping straw (17) or (27) is provided with a slot (16) or (26), and folding lines. An upper portion (37) of the sipping straw is folded down to be attached onto a side of the paper cup during a non-use, and is straightened up during a use. Further, wrinkles are formed on the upper portion of the sipping straw, so that the sipping straw can be properly bent during a use for the sake of convenience.
