Just because it's summer doesn’t mean you have to retire your favorite coffee mug. In fact, your mug can still be a go-to choice for iced drinks—whether you're cooling down with iced coffee, flavored water, or a refreshing herbal tea.
Here’s how to enjoy your mug all season long, even when the temperatures rise.
🧃 1. Chill Your Mug First
For extra refreshment, pop your ceramic mug in the fridge (or even freezer for a few minutes) before pouring in your drink. A chilled mug helps your beverage stay colder longer—no fancy tumbler needed.
☕ 2. Brew Hot, Then Pour Over Ice
If you still prefer brewing your coffee hot, let it cool slightly and pour it over a mug full of ice. This is a quick way to make iced coffee without needing a separate brewing system. To avoid thermal shock, let your coffee cool slightly before pouring it over ice in your mug—especially if your mug has just come out of the fridge or freezer.
🍋 3. Try Cold Brew or Cold Tea
Pour your pre-made cold brew or iced tea into your mug for a relaxed summer sip. Bonus: using your mug instead of a to-go cup makes it feel more cozy and intentional, even if you’re sitting on the porch or taking a break in your home office.
🍓 4. Add Fruit and Flavor
Want to get a little fancy? Fill your mug with ice water and toss in slices of lemon, cucumber, or strawberries. Ceramic mugs aren't just for coffee—they make cute and sturdy drinkware for infused water too!
💡 5. Use a Stainless Steel Straw
Pair your mug with a reusable straw for the full iced drink experience. Stainless steel or silicone straws work great with ceramic mugs, especially when drinking colder beverages.
