The insulating holder further includes a retaining mechanism that holds the disposable cup and lid in the holder without interfering with the ability of the user to drink from the cup. The insulating holder further includes means to facilitate insertion of the cup into the holder without requiring the user to hold the cup either by its bead or by the lid.

A float with a beverage holder cooler has two (2) interior voids configured for ice storage within the cooler separated by a central wall. The voids are accessed by a common side wall which is securable in a closed position by a strap and a fastener. A beverage container holding aperture is disposed within the top center face of the cooler and extends into the common side wall.

Gaskets and beverage container systems and kits comprising gaskets. An exemplary gasket disclosed herein includes a gasket body comprising a generally cylindrical shape, at least two arcuate flanges positioned within a relative inside of the gasket body, the at least two arcuate flanges extending inward from the gasket body, and at least one gap existing between two arcuate flanges of the at least two arcuate flanges.

An insulated holder for a beverage container has a thermally insulating main body with a base and an upwardly extending side wall that extends upwardly to a top perimeter opening, wherein the top perimeter opening allows access to an interior chamber formed by the main body. The interior chamber is adapted to receive the beverage container, and an opening is formed in a bottom surface of the base, wherein a bottle opener prong extends laterally into the opening.

An insulated beverage holder device includes an insulated outer hollow cylinder, the insulated outer hollow cylinder including an open top and a bottom floor; an interior insulating hollow cylinder, the interior insulating hollow cylinder having an open top and an open bottom; and an insulating hollow liner, the insulating liner having an open top and an open bottom. The interior insulating hollow cylinder may be configured to be positioned inside the insulated outer hollow cylinder and attached to the insulated outer hollow cylinder. The insulating hollow liner may be attached to the interior insulating hollow cylinder and the insulating hollow liner to touch a first beverage container.

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.

A beverage container insulating device includes an outer wall and at least one protrusion. The outer wall defines an internal cavity and an orifice that accesses the internal cavity. The at least one protrusion extends into the internal cavity from an internal surface of the outer wall. The protrusion is configured to engage a beverage container when inserted into the internal cavity via an interference-fit such that the protrusion deforms the beverage container and affixes the position of the beverage container within the internal cavity.

A device for covering a beverage container to retain heat comprising a cap, a base, and an arm connecting the cap and the base. The arm is configured to enable the cap to slide away from the base to an open position and slide toward the base to a closed position over the open beverage container. In a preferred embodiment, a mug is configured in size and shape to be mated with the holder to limit heat loss and to increase stability.
