I used to make, consume and share a lot of frozen beverages. I had a set of aluminum cups that I loved, but everyone else hated them because they started frosting over as soon as the frozen drink was poured in. My then girlfriend, now wife, would only use them with a towel wrapped around them for insulation.

    Oof. I think I lean more toward her side, to be honest. I don't like having cold hands.

    I didn't begrudge her the right to be warm, but it did make the cups look a lot less pretty. The ones I had were shaped differently, but basically this:

    I got them at a thrift shop, so no clue what brand they were. I think I technically still have them somewhere but have only used them once any time even remotely recently.
