Tips on Selecting a Travel Mug

If you are traveling and want to take tea or coffee with you then a travel mug is essential. Nowadays there are different travel mugs available to choose from, so in the following sections we will look at some tips that will be useful at the time you buy one.

Basically there are two types of travel mugs; plastic and stainless steel with plastic ones cheaper of the two. But despite being costly stainless steel mugs will be better value in the long run for the expenditure incurred. Plastic mugs often break if dropped and will also not keep tea or coffee warm for as long as a stainless steel mug will.

To keep tea or coffee warm for longer duration you can purchase a mug which has double mug wall insulation. The other advantage you get is that it is easier to clean them as compared to plastic mugs. Plastic ones also start to develop a layer of the beverage overtime and this will affect the taste.

In case you stick to purchasing plastic mug then at least make sure that the mug has a liner made of stainless steel. This way the outside of the mug will not heat up. The other thing you will have to decide is that whether you will purchase a mug which can fit into cup holder of your car or you want something with a non slip wide bottom.

You will have to look into volume size also as these mugs are available in different sizes such as small 8 oz ones if you drink small amounts or large 20 oz ones for people who drink a lot of tea or coffee.

By following the above mentioned tips at the time you shop for travel mugs you will be able to make sure that your tea or coffee will remain hot till last drop.
