A drinks container comprising:
- a container body having a base and a side wall terminating in a rim and defining an open top;
- and
- an adapter mounted on the container body and extending across the top, which is interchangeable between
- a first upright configuration where it forms a substantially central primary outlet which can be opened by a user to drink from the primary outlet, and
- a second inverted configuration in which the adapter forms a secondary outlet adjacent to the side wall of the container body through which liquid can flow to the rim of the container body from where it can be drunk,
- wherein the adapter is interchanged between the first and second configurations by removing it from the container body, inverting it, and mounting it back on the container body.
