Quick Answer

To use your Stanley Quencher 20oz FlowState Tumbler for iced coffee, fill it with ice, pour in your coffee, and rotate the lid to your preferred drinking position—straw, sip, or full open.

Why the FlowState Lid Matters for Iced Coffee

The Quencher 20oz comes with a three-position FlowState lid that lets you control how you drink. For iced coffee, the straw position is ideal because it lets you sip cold coffee without ice hitting your lips. The sip position works well for hot coffee, but for iced drinks, the straw is your best bet.

Ice-to-Coffee Ratio: Keep It Cold Without Dilution

The 20oz size is perfect for a standard iced coffee order. A good starting point is to fill the tumbler halfway with ice, then pour your coffee to the top. This keeps the drink cold while avoiding a watery taste as the ice melts. If you prefer a stronger coffee, use less ice and top up with cold brew or milk.

Step-by-Step Guide to Using the Quencher 20oz for Iced Coffee

  1. Step 1: Fill with Ice: Fill the Quencher 20oz tumbler about halfway with ice cubes. This keeps your coffee cold without over-diluting it. Common mistake: using too much ice can cause the drink to become watery as it melts. Stick to half full.
  2. Step 2: Pour in Your Coffee: Pour your brewed coffee (or cold brew) over the ice until the tumbler is nearly full. Leave a little room for milk or cream if desired. Checkpoint: if using hot coffee, let it cool for a minute before pouring over ice to avoid excessive melting.
  3. Step 3: Add Milk or Sweetener (Optional): Stir in milk, cream, or your preferred sweetener. The wide mouth of the tumbler makes stirring easy with a spoon or straw.
  4. Step 4: Set the Lid to Straw Position: Rotate the FlowState lid so the straw opening aligns with the straw. Insert the included straw and sip. The lid also has a sip position and a full-open position for cleaning. Common mistake: forgetting to close the lid fully can cause spills. Make sure the lid clicks into place.
  5. Step 5: Clean After Use: Rinse the tumbler and lid with warm water and mild soap after each use. The straw can be cleaned with a brush. Do not put the lid in the dishwasher. Checkpoint: residue from coffee and milk can build up in the straw and lid crevices, so clean promptly.
