A three-layer composite paper straw and a method for producing the same are revealed. Basically the paper straw is made from composite paper with three layers of composite paper spirally wound and adhered in a staggered and overlapping manner. A first layer of paper, a second layer of paper and a third layer of paper of the three layers of composite paper form the outermost layer, the intermediate layer and the inner layer of the paper straw respectively. The first and the third layers of paper are stone paper while the second layer of paper is long fiber pulp paper. The three layers of paper are stacked on top of one another in turn with the long side thereof overlapping like tiles and then adhered to one another. The paper straw is eco-friendly, recyclable, with good structure strength and easy to produce.
