Would this even work? Lol

    It would cool it down, but how much would be the question.

    Fridges cool your water in them using the same principal, a loop of tubing is in the fridge which cools the water as it passes through.

      It would entirely depend on how fast you suck.

      Even moderately cool water would work if you just drank slow enough, and ice water wouldn’t work if you drank too fast.

      I’m sure some engineer could do the math on how cold the water would have to be to cool boiling water at maximum vacuum.

        As well as the medium of the straw. It would cool much faster if you had a stainless steel straw versus plastic, which would insulate better.
