A screw lid for an insulating container, which includes a sealing cup and a cover surrounding it, can be screwed onto a cap fixed to the cover. The screw lid is made of plastic and traps a plastic sealing ring against a sealing face on the container to close the container and form a seal. The lid includes a hollow cylindrical cooling body that, when the lid is in place, projects into the sealing cup through the opening sufficiently far to be immersed in the liquid in the sealing cup. The cooling body has a maximum cross-sectional dimension such that it can be accommodated by the cross-sectional dimension of the sealing-cup opening without contacting the sealing-cup opening. By filling the cooling body with a suitable coolant and refrigerating the cooling body prior to attaching the lid to the container, the liquid in the sealing cup will be brought to a low temperature and maintained at a low temperature longer.

An insulating container comprising: a sealing cup for holding liquids, said cup including an opening for the passage of liquid therethrough; a cover supporting said sealing cup; a lid for attachment to said cover; sealing means for preventing the passage of liquid from the container when the lid is secured to said cover; attachment means for removably securing said lid to said cover; and a cooling member removably attached to said lid for extending through said opening sufficiently far when said lid is secured to said container to immerse said cooling member in a liquid in said sealing cup, said cooling member having an external circumference substantially equal to but not contacting an inner surface of said opening; and said lid including joining means having a downwardly extending flange at an end thereof for threadedly engaging a corresponding upwardly extending flange on said cooling member, thereby detachably joining said cooling member to said lid.
