Hello friends Tony here again today's product is a straw item and that item is
the proctor silex i straws I found these Proctor Silex I straws at
kitchen collection for 399 I thought that was a pretty good price they are on
clearance if you're interested in buying these I will be posting a link for these
down in the comment section and also my description for this video so when I
found these proctor silex i straws at the kitchen collection i thought that
looks like a pretty cool idea I've used plastic straws in my own house from time
to time I don't use straws everyday but I do like to use straws now and again so
what it looks like is we have ice trays here that make ice straws and for my
understanding all you're gonna be doing is filling up these ice trays here and
they're gonna form straws for you and then once they're frozen I'll be able to
pull these out and use them as regular straws so I'll be able to put them right
down in the drink and they'll not only work as the straw
but they'll sort of cool my drink you know on top of whatever ice I've already
got in there or if the drinks already cool or what have you
then they'll add to the coolness of the drink and if these straws do work at all
I'm hoping to get a little bit of usage time out of it so I'm gonna box these
things and once I do that I'm gonna wash them and I'm gonna fill them full of
water and then we'll put them in the freezer and then the waiting game begins
okay there's that traditional straw and we don't want that alright it looks like
there's no instructions or anything on the box but there is a little bit of
instruction right here on the back it says eye straw silicone mold tray just
fill with your favorite juice : or cocktail then freeze and enjoy 15 year
warranty dishwasher safe and the mold is made of silicon and it looks like we've
got some plastic tubes here so from my understanding I'm just gonna be able to
fill this up with water here and then once this is filled with water ice is
gonna form around these tubes and that will make a straw and I'll be able to
put this down on a drink and use it as the stroll
so I'm gonna go ahead and wash this thing up and then we're gonna fill it
and I'll freeze it and we'll see what happens
all right so I've got a bottle of water here and I've got the ice straws and I'm
just going to put these back into place here
the metal straws sometimes come with this little straw cleaning tool so that
when you're washing your dishes you can clean the straws out with one of these
and that's how I wash these straws as I ran one of these little whisk things
through the straws while I was washing them so that's a good way to get straws
clean your metal straws or in this case these plastic straws
we got the straws and they're slots now and now I'm gonna fill these slots up
with water and get these things freezin
it's not taking much water to fill up one of these little slots
and these little water reservoirs don't take much water at all to fill out
you've spilled a little bit
since it is made of silicon it's a little bit flimsy and which is no big
deal but whenever I go to transfer these to my freezer I'm afraid that this is
gonna be a little wobbly and it looks like it's going to be a yeah seawater is
leaking out of that as I lift it so I'm gonna have to be very careful whenever I
put these in the freezer and matter of fact I'm kind of thinking that maybe I
should lay these in the freezer and then you know pour the water in them like
that so right now I'm gonna try it like this and see how they turn out
and obviously these are going to take up a little bit of freezer space unless
you're sitting them on top of a box or something you know so I'm gonna give
them a try let's see how they do so I want to show you here I spilled a ton of
water trying to carry these things to the freezer and then what I got them to
the freezer you can see here I'm gonna set up in the freezer now and I spilled
quite a bit of water just trying to get them in here but then I went ahead and
refilled them so so far I'm not liking these too much but we're gonna let them
freeze and see how they work so obviously if you purchase these ice
drawers you're going to want to have a lot of room in your freezer because
you're gonna want to be able to set the ice tray or the scroll tray in your
freezer and then fill it up with water because it's almost impossible to fill
it and then carry it to your freezer so just keep that in mind and I haven't
even got to try them this drawers out themselves once they have frozen let's
hope this gets better all right so let's check them out okay some ice trolls and
they are frozen man
six I straws here and I'm gonna try to pop one out and we'll see what happens
okay so there's one of the ice straws there and you can see it's formed around
the tube there so at first I was thinking that the ice was just the straw
itself but it's actually the tube and the ice around it so this has really
just made to cool the drink off so that's kind of cool actually a little
better than I thought it was so I'll put this in a drink and take a drink with it
and I'll let you know if it's any cooler or not I'm gonna put some grape crush in
the glass here
and doesn't that look cool and refreshing so here I've got my ice straw
and I'm going to take a drink of this and see if it's any cooler and see if it
enhances the experience just pull your lips a little bit and it is it does seem
to be cooler so sucking this grape crush through a
nice straw does seem to make it cooler
refreshing okay the I scroll and I can feel it Coleman's glass up to the crush
wasn't a refrigerator so it was already a little cool but this I scroll is
actually with the crush itself is actually gotten this glass very cold so
the I scroll does cool the drink off quite a bit so on a hot day I think this
I scroll would be a really nice touch and as I take a drink out of this it is
it's ice cold so it's kind of cool it's kind of neat so it's kind of neat do I
think they're practical yeah kinda sorta I don't know they're not super practical
but they're you know it's something it's a novelty it's kind of a novelty that
actually works so I enjoyed the ice troll well I use them maybe you want to
have a party or maybe not a really hot day I might dig these out you know use
them as a normal thing probably not but right now this grape crush tastes pretty
good when it's ice-cold suck through this ice draw
