The best travel mugs keep your hot drinks hot and your cold drinks cold for hours. They are also lightweight, easy to carry, and—most importantly—leakproof. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wrongly put my faith into a travel mug on my way to work only to end up wearing my coffee or have a spill in my tote bag. Luckily, those days are behind me. I’ve finally found a perfectly reliable travel mug to take with me on the go, and so have several of our editors. We rounded up our favorites (like this ceramic mug from W&P) for morning commutes to the office, long road trips, and walks around the neighborhood. After all, it’s better for our planet, and our wallets, to drink our oat milk lattes in a reusable mug that’s easy to clean and take with you anywhere (on that note, check out our favorite reusable water bottles, too). Read on for 12 of the best travel mugs according to our editors, with picks from Hydro Flask, Stanley, Yeti, and more.
