Disclosed herein are systems for controlling and maintaining the temperature of a drink. The system may include a receptacle defining a recess for receiving a drinking vessel. The system may have a stand for holding the receptacle upright. The stand may be releasably attached to the receptacle. The receptacle may include a top end portion, a bottom end portion, an inner wall portion, and an outer wall portion. The top end portion may define a top opening of the recess. A system may include a first receptacle defining a first recess for receiving a drinking vessel. The system may include a second receptacle for receiving a drinking vessel, wherein the second receptacle defines a second recess. The system may include a first stand operable to releasably attach to the first receptacle and the second receptacle. Also disclosed are methods for controlling and maintaining the temperature of a drink.

The double walled vacuum insulated beverage housing system provides an aperture for receiving a heat transfer unit. The heat transfer unit also provides an aperture for receiving a beverage vessel within the heat transfer unit. The heat transfer unit stores a heat transfer material including but not limited to a fluid, gel, phase change material, or other substance that can be heated or cooled depending upon the desired effect on the beverage. A retention shoulder secures the heat transfer unit adjacent an insulating chamber to insulate both the heat transfer unit and the beverage.

A floating beverage holder designed to chill and maintain a cold beverage container in an upright position on water. The beverage holder includes an open cavity sized and shaped to accommodate a desired beverage container, or multiple beverage containers. A first sealed compartment substantially surrounds the cavity and includes a freezable material, such as water, refrigerant or a gel. A second compartment filled with a buoyant and insulative material, such as a polyurethane, substantially surrounds the first compartment. A hard outer shell protects the insulative material of the second compartment. The body of the holder is shaped to provide stability on the water surface.

Gaskets and beverage container systems and kits comprising gaskets. An exemplary gasket of a beverage container insulating system disclosed herein includes a gasket body comprising a generally cylindrical shape, a gasket opening, and an inner wall that faces a central axis of the gasket body, at least one set of protrusions positioned on the inner wall and extending radially inward toward the central axis of the gasket body, the first set of protrusions defining at least one pressure-alleviating gap.

A beverage holder configured to accommodate drinking vessels of different sizes and that can be secured on a resting surface includes a hollow tubular body with an open end, a closed end opposite the open end, at least one projection along the inner surface of the hollow tubular body spaced from the closed end, and a removable insert configured to seat within the hollow tubular body against the at least one projection such that the removable insert is spaced from the closed end. The beverage holder may also include at least one suction cup extending from the exterior surface of the closed end.

A portable beverage container holder having a tubular upper member having inner and outer walls concentric to each other. The tubular member has a top and bottom portion, the bottom portion having a diameter greater than the top portion forming a tapered tubular member. The top portion diameter is of sufficient size to receive a beverage container and preferably includes an insulated separate liner. The holder has a lower base having a top and bottom surface, preferably with a weight inside and surrounding sidewall. The bottom portion of the tubular member is mounted to the top surface of the base. The sidewall protrudes above the top surface of the base to form a circumferential channel surrounding the lower base to capture any spillage from the container. The bottom surface of the base element has mounted thereto a means for preventing the holder from sliding on a surface.

A beverage container holder may include an insulating sleeve including a first end opposite a second end. The first end may be defined by an opening sized to receive a beverage container. The beverage container holder may include a lining affixed to an internal surface of the sleeve along a length of the internal surface, forming an enclosed pocket between the sleeve and the lining. A beverage container holder may include an insert positioned within the pocket and including at least one sealed compartment containing refreezable material.

A beverage holder with an insulating sleeve holds a beverage container and a magnetic mount to magnetically secure the insulating sleeve with the beverage container therein to a ferromagnetic support structure. The magnetic mount comprises an exterior housing located outside the insulating sleeve and on a lateral wall of the insulating sleeve. A magnet is carried by the exterior housing and located outside of the insulating sleeve. An interior backing is located on an interior of the insulating sleeve and fastened to the exterior housing through the insulating sleeve. The exterior housing and the interior backing sandwich a portion of the lateral wall of the insulating sleeve.

The universal insulating binder limits the heat transfer process of a variety of beverage containers. The universal insulating binder includes a coiled cuff body and an insulating layer. The coiled cuff body defines the configuration of the insulating layer and secures the insulating layer against the exterior of a variety of beverage containers. The insulating layer presses against an engaged beverage container and limits the heat transfer between the engaged beverage container and the surrounding environment. The coiled cuff body may include a bendable cuff-shaped shell and a torsion spring or the coiled cuff body may be the torsion spring. The bendable cuff-shaped shell houses the torsion spring. The torsion spring defines the configuration of the universal insulating binder. The universal insulating binder may further include a plurality of non-slip members. The plurality of non-slip members directly increases the friction between the engaged beverage container and the coiled cuff body.

Disclosed herein is a beverage container holding apparatus that floats in water. More specifically, the beverage container holding apparatus is configured for being floated in water and being supported by a rigid support surface such as, for example, a countertop or table. Advantageously, such a beverage container holding apparatus is configured for limiting a potential for the beverage container holding apparatus to overturn and to exhibit floatation stability as a volume of liquid with in the beverage holding container changes such as through consumption thereof. Preferably, such a beverage container holding apparatus additionally serves to insulate the beverage container held therein.
