A beverage container lid for dispersing heat comprising:
- a cover portion having at least one inlet perforation and a dispensing spout extending upwardly therefrom, the spout having spout sides to form a mixing chamber with a dispensing opening;
- wherein at least some of the beverage contained in an interior chamber of a beverage container is drawn through the at least one inlet perforation into the mixing chamber and is dispensed through the dispensing opening such that the at least some of the beverage exiting through the dispensing opening has a lower temperature than the beverage contained in the interior chamber of the beverage container.
A beverage container lid for dispersing heat comprising:
- a lower cover;
- an upper cover attached to the lower cover and forming a cooling channel therebetween, the cooling channel having a channel inlet for allowing fluid to enter the cooling channel and an outlet opening allowing the fluid to exit the cooling channel;
- and
- a spout extending upwardly from the lid and defining a dispensing opening, the spout being fluidly connected to the cooling channel via the outlet opening;
- wherein at least some of the beverage contained in an interior chamber of a cup is drawn into the channel inlet, flows through the cooling channel and through the outlet opening into the spout, and then is dispensed through the dispensing opening of the spout such that the at least some of the beverage has a lower temperature than the beverage contained in the interior chamber of the cup.
A beverage container lid for dispersing heat comprising:
- a cover portion having at least one inlet perforation and a dispensing spout extending upwardly therefrom, the spout having spout sides to form a mixing chamber with a dispensing opening, at least one of spout sides having one or more side perforations for allowing air to enter the mixing chamber to cool at least some of the beverage in the mixing chamber;
- wherein at least some of the beverage contained in an interior chamber of a beverage container is drawn through the at least one inlet perforation into the mixing chamber and is dispensed through the dispensing opening such that the at least some of the beverage exiting through the dispensing opening has a lower temperature than the beverage contained in the interior chamber of the beverage container.
