    A good, insulated cup. I make ice coffee every morning and a good cup doesn’t get condensation and keeps the coffee cold for hours (I drink slowly while I work)

        Live life to the fullest and teach your mate’s cat to play the piano by carefully dripping tuna water between selected keys.

            Put a drink in your cup that you hate, that way you’ll be reluctant to drink it as frequently. So if you hate pineapple juice, fill it up with that!

        I have a silicone cup like this that works pretty well: https://a.co/d/3nabYyx

        I also have tumblers without a top from the brand Brumate that work amazingly, but they cost more than $20 retail. I’ve gotten them for cheaper at discount stores and on sale at their website.
