What the Shake & Take Does
The Shake & Take is an all-in-one thermal travel cup and espresso shaker. With it, you can create delicious iced coffee drinks at home, then switch to the Tritan travel lid to enjoy your coffee on the go. It's designed to keep your routine tidy and your drink cold, whether you're at the counter or commuting.
How to Make Iced Coffee with the Shake & Take
- 1. Brew your espresso or strong coffee: Prepare a shot of espresso or a small amount of concentrated coffee. The Shake & Take works best with a concentrated base so the ice doesn't dilute the flavor too quickly.
- 2. Add ice and any flavorings: Fill the thermal cup with ice cubes. If you like sweeteners, syrups, or milk, add them now. The shaker lid will mix everything evenly.
- 3. Attach the shaker lid and shake: Screw on the shaker lid securely. Shake the cup for a few seconds to combine the hot espresso with the ice and any additions. The shaking action chills the drink rapidly and creates a smooth, blended texture.
- 4. Switch to the travel lid: Remove the shaker lid and replace it with the included Tritan travel lid. The cup is now ready to take with you. The thermal construction keeps your iced coffee cold for hours.

Tips for a Mess-Free Experience
The Shake & Take is designed to minimize spills, but a few habits help keep things clean. Always make sure the shaker lid is fully tightened before shaking. If you're adding milk or syrup, pour them in before the ice so they mix more easily. After shaking, wipe the rim before switching to the travel lid to avoid drips. The thermal cup is easy to rinse out between uses, and the lids are simple to wash by hand.
When to Use the Travel Lid vs. the Shaker Lid

Switch to the Tritan travel lid when you're ready to head out. The travel lid is clear, durable, and seals securely to prevent leaks in your bag. You can also drink directly from the travel lid, making it a true on-the-go solution.
