Keeping your summer sip cool

Keep your cool — and your coolers cold — this summer with help from a Mason Tumbler from Aladdin.

The 20-ounce insulated blue-tinted mug works well with lemonade, smoothies or something more potent (maybe strawberry margaritas).

It features a metal lid, no BPA, a no-sweat exterior and a smoothie-friendly straw.

To help make the season’s livin’ easy, it’s also dishwasher safe.

The suggested retail price is $12.99; at retailers nationwide or at aladdin-pmi.com.
