I love mason jars. As someone who cans my own homemade fruits, applesauce, pickles and more. I literally have hundreds. I love mason jar craft ideas, using mason jars for dry goods storage, organizing odds and ends, and making yogurt. So, when I saw EcoJarz lids, which are made to fit on mason jars to turn them into travel mugs, I was very excited! The people at Ecojarz are very friendly, and she sent both the silicone and stainless steel lids to me to review. They also sent their stainless steel straws and a nifty straw cleaner to wash them as well.
Eco Jarz Lids fit both large and regular mouth jars so you can convert any of them to make a drink cup! I have tried everything from filtered water with limes and strawberries added for flavor, to my morning smoothies, to juice Italian sodas, and homemade iced tea using these lids and straws. I absolutely love them! When I drink from plastic cups and use plastic straws, I can taste the plastic in my drinks. YUCK! Everything tastes better out of glass. I liked the silicone lids and the stainless steel lids equally as far as function is concerned.
The straws are very nice and easy to clean as well with the little straw cleaners they sent me. I liked how the straw felt in my mouth and they are made from stainless steel, not aluminum!
I have been totally converted to using these! I really only like to drink from glass but of course dislike that glass cups aren't really portable due to no lids. EcoJarz solves that problem and also mason jars are really tough so they are less likely to break compared to glass cups.
I love the silicone gasket which prevents spills or leaks since as you can see from my pictures even my youngest one loves to use these! I also love the stainless steel straws which will honestly last my family a lifetime!! These work great for any type of drink and I even enjoy sipping from the steel which cools when a drink passes through it!
Ecojarz offers a one-stop spot to order all of the things you need to turn your mason jars into portable drink cups. I highly recommend the stainless steel straws, in addition to the lids as they are a superior option to reduce waste for a cleaner, healthier environment. These lids make a great gift for your family and friends.
