Abstract
A drinking mug and multipurpose lid combination comprises a lid comprising a substantially cylindrical side wall having an inner surface, and at least one locking member provided on the inner surface. The combination further comprises a mug comprising a substantially cylindrical body, an annular shoulder at the upper end of the cylindrical body, and a recessed cylindrical wall at the inner edge of the annular shoulder. The mug further comprises at least one retaining bar provided on the outer surface of the recessed cylindrical wall. The inner surface of the cylindrical side wall of the lid is adapted to be positioned adjacent the outer surface of the recessed cylindrical wall of the mug when the lid is used to cover the mouth of the mug. When in this position, the lid is adapted to be rotated in a first direction so that each locking member of the lid is retained below each corresponding retaining bar of the mug to secure the lid to the mug.
