Travel Mugs

When you’re on the go and you want to take a hot beverage with you, a travel mug is the best option. Instead of an open coffee mug that could spill your drink, travel coffee mugs will keep every drink at the right temperature and prevent it from spilling.

What is a travel mug and how does it work?

A travel mug is a tall, insulated coffee mug. Travel mugs are available in a variety of and styles, and they generally come in a 12 ounce or larger size.

Most people use travel mugs to keep their beverages warm, but you can also use them to keep a drink cold. These mugs are created with a double-walled design that’s similar to a coffee thermos. During the construction a vacuum seal is created by sucking the air out between the two walls.

Once you screw on the lid any heat inside is prevented from escaping, leaving you with a fresh, hot cup of coffee for a lot longer than a ceramic coffee mug. A travel mug lid also prevents spills because they only have a small area that’s open for sipping.

What is the best type of travel mug for me?

You may be someone who wants to take their coffee or tea with them on their commute. Or, you’re an avid hiker or camper and you’re looking for a larger travel mug that holds coffee, tea, or carbonated beverages.

Travel mugs and thermos for kids

While a coffee fan will want to keep their drink hot, kids who take a travel mug to school, sports, or other activities will usually focus on keeping their drinks cold.

Kid’s travel mugs are usually made from stainless steel, have vacuum insulation to keep drinks cold for up to 12 and have integrated carry handles to make it easy to hold and carry.
