Vinegar sounds the best to me because we use this to clean other things like coffee makers, etc. Leave it in over night, soak it in mouthwash before storing in your bag.
Actually, might not be a bad idea to do this treatment to your spare whistle in case one of your partners forgets theirs. They will appreciate the mouth-wash treatment.

If you allow them to melt you don't need to be messing with boiling water in the first place. Also, they will fade if you keep them in there too long...otherwise, it won't hurt the whistle.
