bendy straw

Jointed drinking tube

A bendy straw is a drinking straw with a corrugated section near the top that allows it to bend at an angle.

The flexible joint lets you position the straw toward your mouth without tilting the cup: The nurse gave him a bendy straw so he could drink while lying down.
