These are the Best Travel Mugs For a Caffeinated Commute

Man, never did we ever think that we’d miss the office this much. But low and behold, we’re itching to get back into our building just to feel something again. As COVID-19 vaccinations continue to progress and restrictions begin to let up, many of us are finally getting back into the office to experience our workplaces again for the first time in what feels like years. Waking up two minutes before you clock in just to roll over to your desk while still in your PJs isn’t cutting it anymore, so we’re damn excited.

You can (and should) invest in great coffee beans, store them in an airtight container, and brew them with the best gear around

But pouring that elixir into a cheap travel mug is a great way to waste all of that money and effort. Bad mugs don’t keep hot coffee hot or cold coffee cold, leaving you with lukewarm swill. Oh, and they leak. The only thing worse than drinking bad coffee is not even having bad coffee to drink because most of it ended up on your shirt.

We reached out to Bryan Duggan, Eastern Divisional Manager for Counter Culture Coffee and coffee-loving dad, for some expert guidance....
