Is it safe to use in a drinking mug?

No, I would not use it IN a drinking mug because it has a very distinct smell and would alter the taste of whatever you put in the mug. If there is wood accent on the outside of the mug, not the inside, it would be safe.

It is safe for use on butcher block countertops, so I would guess it would be safe for a drinking mug - unless you're allergic to tung nuts. However, as another reviewer noted, it might alter the flavor of whatever you're drinking. By the way, mineral oil IS used for surfaces that will come in contact with food, but it is petroleum-based. I don't use it on my skin so am hesitant to use it on food surfaces, although it is a common practice. (100% pure for each, of course!)

I'm not a doctor or a scientist, but common sense tells me - absolutely not! Sniff the stuff. Read the label. Would you drink it? It should not be used on any surface that will come into contact with food. A wooden mug? Try vegetable oil of some kind.

Not sure they do say not to use in alcoholic drinks. So coffee might not be a good idea either.

I am sorry to hear this Jacquelyn H. I have only hand washed my "Morning Mug." I didn't want to chance the heat from a Dishwashing unit to damage the mug. I would see about getting a "Refund" for the mug, Especially if it said it was dishwasher safe. I hope things work out for you on this matter.

Yes, I believe so. I don't use it for mugs, however I believe it is the same. I use standard sublimation paper. I usually look for the best deals. I currently use Crown.

Contrary to some reviewers here, the copper mug is NOT intended to impart flavor to the vodka. The unusual copper mug was essentially a way to promote Smirnoff vodka in the US many years ago. And that's the truth!BTW, copper should never be used with acidic drinks, such as lemonade or tomato juice. So don't put your Bloody Mary in a copper mug! Since this particular mug is stainless steel with copper plating only on the outside, it should be suitable for any beverage.

Absolutely not. The exterior stays cool even with boiling water. Hot drinks stay that way for longer than with a ceramic mug though, so be aware of that.

I believe so, however, I do not recommend this product for drinking. Something with the glue, creates a very plastic taste to the water, even after hundreds of uses. I use this mainly for distilled water for my machinery but also tried to drink it but it was not drinkable. Also the company has discontinued the product. I had a problem with the boiling chamber overheating with less than 1 year use. The company was very nice and refunded me the cost. Also, this product came to me used and very dirty hence the return.

I would assume so. If heat destroys it in cooking, I would be afraid to use it in the coffee. Not 100% sure, though. To be safe, I don't use mine in hot food.

Yes ! but be careful with hot drinks. Make sure to watch the handle doesn't come loose.

This is meant to be a travel mug or coffee cup for outside. There is no way to seal the drinking port to shake it with a health drink. It"s an elegant travel cup.

Yes,I use hot chocolate in the mugs.There is no any problem of it. The temperature holds very well even after I finish my class all day long.

about coffee mug i believe you can. but I don't know about the water bottle. It depends on the size of it.

No way! I use it in a 16 oz mug and that is pretty strong. To dilute this by 16 would give you at best colored water, certainly not tea.

I do use these with hot beverages - actually tea and I don't find it a problem as it doesn't get any hotter than the beverage and if you are cautious when you initially use them until you become used to the difference and use common sense, you shouldn't have a problem.
