## Abstract

Beverage systems and kits and methods of using the same. A beverage system of the present disclosure includes a container configured to retain a beverage, the container having an outer wall and an internal threaded section above a non-threaded inner wall section; a threaded gasket having a threaded portion and an outer curved profile, the threaded portion configured to engage the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto; and a lid having an extension portion extending from a cover portion, the extension portion having a seal positioned thereon, the seal configured to engage the non-threaded inner wall section of the container when coupled thereto.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A beverage system, comprising:
a container configured to retain a beverage, the container having an outer wall and an internal threaded section;
a threaded gasket having a threaded portion, the threaded portion configured to engage the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto; and
a lid having an extension portion extending from a cover portion, the extension portion having a seal positioned thereon, the seal configured to engage the container away from the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto;
wherein the container is configured to receive a 16 oz. beverage can and is further configured so that the threaded gasket contacts the beverage can when the threaded gasket is coupled to the container.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The beverage system of claim 1, wherein the internal threaded section is above a non-threaded inner wall section that extends inward toward a relative center of the container further than the internal threaded section of the container.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The beverage system of claim 2, wherein when the lid is coupled to the container, the seal of the extension portion of the lid engages the non-threaded inner wall section below the internal threaded section of the container.

### Claim 4 (depends on 2)

The beverage system of claim 2, wherein the container is vacuum sealed between the outer wall and the non-threaded inner wall section.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The beverage system of claim 1, further comprising:
an adapter having a circumferential outer wall extending from a relative top to a relative bottom of the adapter, wherein the adapter is configured to fit within the container and rest at or near a relative bottom of the container.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The beverage system of claim 5, wherein the container is configured to receive a 12 oz. beverage can and is further configured so that the threaded gasket contacts the beverage can when the adapter is positioned within the container when the threaded gasket is coupled to the container.

### Claim 7 (depends on 5)

The beverage system of claim 5, wherein the adapter defines a circumferential recessed portion at the relative top of the adapter and further defines a central dome at a relative center of the adapter.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The beverage system of claim 7, wherein the circumferential recessed portion and the central dome of the adapter are configured so to generally receive a bottom portion of a beverage can such that a bottom perimeter ring of the beverage can fits within the circumferential recessed portion of the adapter.

### Claim 9 (depends on 5)

The beverage system of claim 5, wherein the adapter contains a temperature-sensitive material therein, the temperature-sensitive material selected from the group consisting of a metal and a liquid.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The beverage system of claim 1, wherein the lid has at least one aperture defined therein and at least one aperture cover coupled thereto, the at least one aperture cover configured to cover the aperture.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The beverage system of claim 1, wherein the outer wall of the container portion defines a grip portion thereon or therein, the grip portion comprising at least one recessed portion and at least one transition portion adjacent thereto.

### Claim 12

A beverage system, comprising:
a container configured to retain a beverage, the container having an outer wall and an internal threaded section;
a threaded gasket having a threaded portion, the threaded portion configured to engage the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto;
a lid having an extension portion extending from a cover portion, the extension portion having a seal positioned thereon, the seal configured to engage the container away from the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto; and
an adapter having a circumferential outer wall extending from a relative top to a relative bottom of the adapter, wherein the adapter is configured to fit within the container and rest at or near a relative bottom of the container;
wherein the container is configured to receive a 16 oz. beverage can and is further configured so that the threaded gasket contacts the beverage can when the threaded gasket is coupled to the container, and wherein the container is configured to receive a 12 oz. beverage can and is further configured so that the threaded gasket contacts the beverage can when the adapter is positioned within the container when the threaded gasket is coupled to the container.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The beverage system of claim 12, wherein the adapter defines a circumferential recessed portion at the relative top of the adapter and further defines a central dome at a relative center of the adapter, and wherein the circumferential recessed portion and the central dome of the adapter are configured so to generally receive a bottom portion of a beverage can such that a bottom perimeter ring of the beverage can fits within the circumferential recessed portion of the adapter.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

The beverage system of claim 12, wherein the adapter contains a temperature-sensitive material therein, the temperature-sensitive material selected from the group consisting of a metal and a liquid.

### Claim 15 (depends on 12)

The beverage system of claim 12, wherein the internal threaded section is above a non-threaded inner wall section that extends inward toward a relative center of the container further than the internal threaded section of the container.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The beverage system of claim 15, wherein when the lid is coupled to the container, the seal of the extension portion of the lid engages the non-threaded inner wall section below the internal threaded section of the container.

### Claim 17

A beverage system, comprising:
a container configured to retain a beverage, the container having an outer wall and an internal threaded section above a non-threaded inner wall section, wherein the non-threaded inner wall section extends inward toward a relative center of the container further than the internal threaded section of the container;
a threaded gasket having a threaded portion and an outer curved profile extending from a relative top to a relative side of the threaded gasket, the threaded portion configured to engage the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto;
a lid having an extension portion extending from a cover portion, the extension portion having a seal positioned thereon, the seal configured to engage the non-threaded inner wall section of the container below the internal threaded section of the container when coupled thereto; and
an adapter having a circumferential outer wall extending from a relative top to a relative bottom of the adapter, wherein the adapter is configured to fit within the container and rest at or near a relative bottom of the container;
wherein the container is configured to receive a 16 oz. beverage can and is further configured so that the threaded gasket contacts the beverage can when the threaded gasket is coupled to the container, and wherein the container is configured to receive a 12 oz. beverage can and is further configured so that the threaded gasket contacts the beverage can when the adapter is positioned within the container when the threaded gasket is coupled to the container.

### Claim 18 (depends on 17)

The beverage system of claim 17, wherein the outer curved profile of the gasket extends from a relative top of the threaded gasket to a relative side of the threaded gasket.

### Claim 19 (depends on 17)
