It Just Looks Like it Came from Starbucks

Copco Acadia To Go Mug

Yours truly is a morning person – yeah, that may be dis-gusting, but it’s true. That’s a good thing for my most recent job: since I got the bulk of my calls for support and project details from Eurasia, I usually hit the office front door at about 6:45 a.m. The good news is that my schedule allowed me to dodge a lot of Houston’s horrendous rush-hour traffic. That schedule did not, however, leave enough time for a second cup of coffee at home, so I would drink it in my truck while I waited out the Bayou City’s interminable stoplights. It’s in the truck that this Copco Acadia To Go Mug made a great impression on me, mainly because it didn't dribble coffee on my shirt. 

Description

Copco’s Arcadia Mug is a sixteen-ounce, double-walled mug made of BPA-free plastic. It’s almost exactly the same size and shape as a Starbucks grande¹ cup. It’s not only the same size, shape and color; the mug’s white lid looks the same and Copco even adds a brown, textured band around the middle that looks an awful lot like one of those insulating sleeves. The band is available in a wide range of colors and patterns, but mine is basically plain vanilla – actually plain chocolate, given that it’s dark brown.
