Attention all outdoorsmen, coffee lovers, and smoothie enthusiasts: the travel mug you’ve been waiting for has arrived. The Cauldryn mug is a hand-held powerhouse of a travel mug for anyone who has experienced the let-down of cold coffee, the hassle of blended drinks, or the unique challenges of campfire cooking. What could be so special about a travel mug? Well, we’re glad you asked.

The mug itself is akin to your standard, high-quality travel mug. It’s comfortable to hold, nice to look at, and easy to sip from. It’s the included attachments that make the Cauldryn mug truly unique. A heating element (the Fyre) attaches to the bottom of the mug and harnesses the power of its rechargeable battery to keep your drinks at their ideal temperature. That’s not all it can do, though; The Fyre heating element has four settings (hot, extra hot, brew, and boil) that can reach up to 212 degrees Fahrenheit and let you do everything from boiling water for sterilization to making soup, cooking freeze-dried meals, and brewing coffee and tea. Consider such a wide variety of uses and you begin to see how invaluable this baby could be for your next hiking or camping trip.

The heating element is extremely effective but completely unobtrusive. Toting the mug around with it attached to the bottom doesn’t look or feel all that different than carrying the mug solo. The mug also comes with an AC base so you can plug it directly into power when it’s available, and you have the option of getting a DC base if you prefer. The mug itself includes a built-in LCD display to help you track battery life and temperature of its contents.

All this heat just wasn’t enough for Cauldryn though, which is why they decided to release a Blender and Battery Combo Pack that takes the whole set-up to a whole new level. The new kit comes with the Cauldryn Mug, Fyre heating element, and a blender attachment that lets you whip up shakes, smoothies, and margaritas in addition to your favorite toasty beverages.

If you’re sick of being slowed down by clunky blenders, disappointed by room-temperature coffee, and frustrated by campfire cooking, the set is worth checking out. The combo kit is available for pre-order now and is expected to ship out at the beginning of September.

If simple travel mugs are more your flavor, we’ve rounded up all the best options for you to make your morning routine just that much easier.

What, exactly, is a flat white? All about the tasty coffee drink
All about the flat white, a delicious coffee drink
flat white coffee

Espresso lovers who travel overseas may find a new world of coffee shop menu options not commonly seen in U.S. coffee chains. One drink popular in Australia, the flat white, has made its way to many U.S. coffee shops, including Starbucks. Yet most Americans do not actually know what this drink consists of. The flat white is a delicious, smooth, and velvety espresso drink that you might just be missing out on. Here's what you need to know about the flat white.
What is a flat white?

You can think of a flat white as a hybrid between a standard latte and a cappuccino. A classic latte is made with a shot of espresso, steamed milk, and foam on top. In contrast, a flat white is a smaller drink than a latte and is made with a double shot of espresso with micro-foamed milk on top. On the other hand, a flat white is larger than a cappuccino, which is made with a more equal ratio of espresso, steamed milk, and milk froth.

12 amazing types of pasta (and when you should actually be using them)
Swap your spaghetti for bucatini and thank us later.
Various dried pastas

One stroll down your local grocer's pasta aisle, and you'll be quickly, startlingly reminded of just how many pasta shapes there are. According to Italy Magazine, there are an estimated 350 different types of pasta, and about four times that many names for them. Needless to say, we'd love to cover them all, but an article addressing each and every pasta shape might prove a bit excessive.

The world of Italian pasta is an extensive one that would take months to dissect properly. We could spend days on gnocchi alone, and months on the beautiful madness that is stuffed pastas. Ravioli, tortellini, lasagna, and cannelloni are each individually deserving of their own articles. As it is, though, in the American market, there seems to be a bit of confusion around some of the more common dried pasta shapes and how they're best used. We've chosen a dozen of our very favorite, most commonly found pasta shapes to discuss here.

The ultimate guide to Lebanese cuisine, a rich and distinct food culture
After you read this, you'll be excited to cook this cuisine at home
Middle Eastern, Arabic, or Mediterranean dinner table with grilled lamb kebab, chicken skewers with roasted vegetables and appetizers variety serving on rustic outdoor table

The food culture of Lebanon is rich and resonant, reflecting both its Mediterranean setting and deep anthropological history.
Even those who have never trekked to Beirut — let alone their local Middle Eastern eatery — are likely familiar with a few of the staples. Lebanon, once a major part of the Ottoman Empire, is the birthplace of earthy dishes like baba ganoush and sweet treats such as baklava.

With its admiration for seasonality and a mix of breads and produce almost always accompanied by beverages, Lebanese cuisine is like the Italy of the Arab world. Whether you're munching at a cafe in Tripoli or just thumbing though a good cookbook at home, this kind of food is not only delicious and distinctive, but it welcomes an unhurried pace over the duration of many, many enjoyable courses.
