An easy way to label them with as big or small a label as wanted would
be to use a label with a sticky back that could wrap around the straw and
then stick to itself so as to make a "flag" on the straw.  It could be made
to come to a "point" like a pennant, or could be square, rectangular, or
any other attractive shape (maybe a skep-shape) and color that your
imagination can come up with.  (Oops, my mother always taught me that
"Ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I will
not put," and there I've gone and broken that rule.  Sorry, Mom.)
