Reusable mugs and travel flasks are becoming increasingly popular. Partly because they’re a handy thing to have, but also because the billions of disposable coffee cups discarded in the UK every year is weighing heavily on our minds.
A quality travel mug is a great gift or perhaps your old one is a bit past its best. We’ve taken on the time-consuming task and compiled a definitive list of the best travel mugs currently available. Ranging from well-made and functional, to the very hi-tech.
The very best travel cup – rCup
rCup 8oz Recycled Cup
The best travel mug for you and the planet
Price: £12.99 | VIEW OFFER
Practical and reliable, the rCup is an option for those who like their coffee hot and planet looked after. Made from recycled paper cups, the lid is drinkable across 360-degree and can be opened with one hand. It’s perfect for the car, office or train, plus, it’s leak-proof. The life of the cup is extended further – if the seal goes, you can reach out to rCup on its website for a replacement.

Flintronic Travel Mug
Price: £14.99 | VIEW OFFER
This looks like a fairly ordinary 400ml stainless steel insulated flask, but it comes with a USB cable to charge it. Why? Because the top of the lid has a waterproof LCD screen that tells you the temperature of the liquid inside. The screen also has a red ring around it if the liquid is above 55°C, green if it’s between 55°C and 21°C, and blue if it’s between 20°C and 0°C. It also features a beeping reminder which, fortunately, can be turned off.
