A coffee mug is simply a large glass container that coffee and other hot drinks are usually served in. Often coffee cups are made of stainless steel and often have a single lever for easy portability while the drink is warm. They come in all different styles and colors, though the standard coffee mug most people are familiar with is the one with the single lever. More expensive coffee mugs often have two levers or foldable handles. Plastic mugs are also available, though these typically only have a limited amount of style and practicality compared to their steel counterparts. Coffee mug sets, on the other hand, provide you with a convenient way to keep your coffee or hot chocolate warm while keeping it out of sight and out of reach of children or pets.
There are many different styles and designs of coffee mug sets. Depending on how often you plan to use your coffee mug, you can find a stainless coffee mug that will perfectly fit into your life. Here are some of the most common types of coffee or tea mugs found in coffee houses and restaurants around the world:
Coffee and Tea Mugs with a Cone: These coffee and tea mugs often come with a built-in real or plastic coffee cup. These are great drinking vessels for drinking both cold coffee or hot beverages. Typically, ceramic mugs with a cone are more functional, since you can brew coffee and place the cone in the freezer first to make hot beverages, rather than simply putting it in the warmer as is sometimes recommended. This type of mug is also great for taking with you on outdoor trips and spending time at home, since they are small enough to take with you wherever you go.
Coffee Cups With Cone: These coffee cups generally come in one or two ounces sizes. The insulated cup provides great insulation for hot beverages, while keeping the drinker's fingers warm. Often these are insulated well enough that a larger number of ounces are not needed to keep the drinker comfortably warm. These cups have many uses, from carrying coffee or tea to protecting the hands from excessive heat.
Medium-Sized Coffee Mugs: These coffee mugs are usually found either on sale or at specialty coffee shops and are usually sold in four ounces to eight ounces sizes. They are usually made of a thick plastic, such as polyethylene or plastics similar. These medium sized coffee mugs are convenient for taking on trips, shopping or anywhere cold beverages are normally consumed. However, these mugs do not provide as much room as the larger mugs.
Flavoured Coffee Mugs: These types of coffee mugs allow a person to have their favourite beverage steamed while drinking it. Most flavour combinations are usually a combination of chocolate and coffee, or vanilla and coffee. To make the best flavour combinations, a person should always use the same liquid that they will be adding the flavour to. This allows a person to control exactly what flavour goes into each cup, resulting in a truly delicious beverage.
Espresso Mugs: Many coffee drinkers enjoy the wonderful taste of a hot cup of coffee, but sometimes finding a place to put that beverage down is a problem. A person can solve this problem by purchasing an espresso coffee mug. Espresso mugs can be small or large, depending upon a person's personal preference. Some people prefer the larger sized espresso mug, while others may find comfort in the smaller sized one. If you are someone who likes the convenience of an insulated, small sized mug to bring with you on a trip, then an oversized latte mug is perfect for you.
Toppings For Your Coffee Mug: Toppings are generally included with coffee mugs to make the container more attractive, although they do not actually contribute to the flavour of the beverage. Typically a person will have several different types of drink coasters and mugs available, which allow them to match their mug to the occasion that they are drinking their beverage. Some people even choose to add a simple piece of fruit to their coffee mug, although a person may want to consider using something more fancy, such as an apple.
