A drinking vessel comprising: an open-mouthed container; a lid for the open mouth of said container; and a rim or a rim-portion for a person to drink from; the lid at least partially defining a liquid outlet arranged below the level of the rim or rim-portion to allow liquid to flow from the interior of the container and over the rim or rim-portion as the drinking vessel is tilted; the lid having a support part extending partially across the open-mouth of the container and a closure flap hingedly connected to the support part across at least part of the open-mouth of the cup-shaped container, the closure flap being biased towards a closed position in which the closure flap closes the liquid outlet to prevent flow of liquid therethrough; there being provided a mechanism configured to move or deflect the closure flap against said bias to open said liquid outlet and permit the flow of liquid therethrough.
