ABSTRACT:
A travel mug includes a container and a lid in combination. The container has a handle and an annular lip. The lid has an annulus capable of forming a seal with the top side of the annular lip. A cylindrical well in the lid has a vertical dividing wall so that the lid may be readily rotated by hand. Two retaining arms extend from the underside of the lid and engage the underside of the annular lip to pull it into tight abutment therewith. Diametrically opposed gaps in the lip act as passageways for the retaining arms. Diametrically opposed notches in the lid when aligned with the gaps allow a person to drink from the otherwise sealed container.
