Sipping in Style: A Guide to Using Tumblers

A Guide to Using Tumblers & Choosing Between Hot/Cold

There’s nothing quite like sipping on a delicious drink, especially when it’s in a tumbler! Tumblers are not only stylish but also functional, keeping your beverages hot or cold for an extended period of time. Whether you’re taking it on the go or enjoying it at home, a tumbler is perfect for any occasion. In this blog post, we’ll share tips and tricks for using tumblers and choosing between hot and cold drinks. 

First, let’s dive into the different types of tumblers – there are insulated and non-insulated tumblers. Insulated tumblers are double-walled and made of stainless steel, which makes them great at retaining temperatures. They are perfect for hot drinks in the winter months or cold drinks on a hot summer day. Non-insulated tumblers, on the other hand, are made of materials like acrylic and won’t keep your drink hot or cold for very long. However, they are perfect for drinks that are meant to be consumed quickly, like water or juice (or wine, of course).

If you’re deciding between hot or cold drinks, it’s important to know that temperature can affect the taste of your drink. Hot drinks tend to enhance the flavors of the beverage, making it a great choice for coffee or tea. Cold drinks, on the other hand, can be refreshing and perfect for a hot summer day. Keep in mind that some drinks taste great both hot and cold, like lemonade or cider.

Now that you know the different types of tumblers and the benefits of hot vs. cold drinks, here are some tips for using your tumbler effectively. First, make sure to preheat or pre-cool your tumbler before adding your drink – this will help to retain temperature for longer. Additionally, don’t fill your tumbler all the way to the top – leave space for ice cubes or for the drink to expand as it heats up. Finally, make sure to clean your tumbler properly to avoid any lingering odors or tastes.

If you’re looking for some recommendations for tumblers, here are a few of our favorites. For an insulated tumbler, we recommend our stainless steel travel coffee, wine, or skinny tumblers.
