good for hot drinks too?

I looked at the tag and at the cup itself- it says insulated tumbler, nothing specific to hot or cold? I dont use it for heat, to be honest. Mainly because of the straw.

I haven't tried it for warm drinks but there is no other place to drink from other than the straw. So any hot liquid would have to be sipped from the straw.

No, these are only for cold drinks. But it will keep a drink cold for a long time. I put smoothies in mine. Use pipe cleaners to clean out the straw.

Probably not because you're really not even supposed to put it in the dish washer. I've never tried a hot drink in it because of the straw, though.

They tend to get too hot around the top edge when you serve hot beverages in them but they are thermal because of the double walls so keep warm beverages warm for a while. I think they are better for cold drinks. They are super durable, I have had them for a few years and love them.

I think it would be fine to use it for hot chocolate but I have only used mine for coffee. It works very well and keeps coffee hot for hours.

Yes. I use these mugs for heating up water in the microwave for instant coffee.

I have never used it for hot liquid. I don't think it would hold heat well though. I use it daily for my Spark drink & love it.

The cup would hold hot beverages just fine, but copper is a great conductor of both cold and heat. I just put some HOT water in a mug and within 30 seconds the cup as well as the handle became too hot to hold. If you were to wear an oven mitt while drinking your hot tea or coffee you should be just fine, but for bare handed use I would not advise it!

You can but I don't think drinking hot liquids would be a good idea because the chemicals might leach out, plus it smells horrible when heated . I would not recommend it for drinking mugs only for decorative ones.

Yes I use it for tea or coffee. It works really well and keeps liquids hot or cold for about 3 hours.

I have not used them with hot beverages, only iced beverages. But I doubt if they will break.

I wouldn't use it for hot beverages myself, though it would certainly keep them hot. The problem is, it uses a straw, not a "sippy-cup" style spout, so it would be very easy to burn your mouth badly. Also, though the mouthpiece is silicone (and thus would be fine with even the hottest drinks), the straw is (BPA free) plastic, and I'm not sure how well it would hold up to heat.

Absolutely, I use them for tea, coffee, and coco. The handle stays cool and the drink stays hot.

No . Since it is plastic , it is only good for cold or room temp beverages. Contigo makes a stainless steel for hot.

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.

I'm not sure. It is made of hard inflexible plastic. I guess you could, but I would look into a cuppow for hot drinks.

I used them for cold beverages. But where they are glass I would think hot drinks would work in them as well.

Never try in hot beverage. Sorry that I don't know the answer. But some of glasses in the set are very thin toward the top. I've broken a few.

Although I have not used in drinking hot coffee, the manufactured material would handle heat. The metal might heat up a little. I have used with cold coffee and it worked great, no coffee taste residing of course I cleaned first.
