     In the illustrated embodiment, beverage container  10  includes a body  12  and a lid  14 . Lid  14  may be removably attached to body  12  by pushing lid  14  towards body  12  and/or rotating lid  14  with respect to body  12  (e.g., rotating lid  14  with respect to body  12  in the direction D 1  around the rotational axis A R1  through the center of lid  14  and/or body  12 ). Attachment of lid  14  to body  12  is discussed in more detail below. In the illustrated embodiment, the beverage within body  12  is sealed from the outside environment until after lid  14  is attached to body  12  and used to unseal the beverage. 
       FIGS. 3 to 6  illustrate an example embodiment of lid  14  in more detail. In the illustrated embodiment, lid  14  includes one or more of a top surface  20 , one or more side surface  21 , a lip  22 , one or more aperture structure  24 , and one or more protrusions  26 . Lid  14  may be formed, for example, from plastic, a metal such as aluminum, another suitable material, or a combination of multiple suitable materials. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one aperture structure  24  includes a first aperture structure  24   a  and a second aperture structure  24   b  (shown generally as reference number  24  in some figures). First aperture structure  24   a  is configured to provide a drinking aperture for the user, while second aperture structure  24   b  is configured to enable air to pass from the outside environment into contact with the beverage within beverage container  10  so that the beverage may flow freely to the user through first aperture structure  24   a . In an embodiment, first aperture structure  24   a  is larger than second aperture structure  24   b , but the shapes and sizes of first aperture structure  24   a  and second aperture structure  24   b  may vary in different embodiments. In an embodiment, beverage container  10  may be formed with only first aperture structure  24   a.    
     In the illustrated embodiment, first aperture structure  24   a  includes a first aperture  32   a  through top surface  20 . In the illustrated embodiment, first aperture  32   a  is surrounded by at least one outer wall  34   a .

In the illustrated embodiment, second portion  38   a  is larger than first aperture portion  36   a  to create a conical structure, but those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that different shapes and sizes for first aperture portion  36   a  and second aperture portion  38   a  are suitable for use with the beverage containers disclosed herein. In the illustrated embodiment, first aperture portion  36   a  is located near a user&#39;s lips when the user is drinking the beverage from beverage container  10 , while second aperture portion  38   a  is placed near body  12  to receive the beverage and enable the beverage to flow through aperture  32   a  to the user. An advantage of the present disclosure is that different types of lids  14  with different types of aperture structures  24  for different types of beverages may be easily interchanged with different types of bodies  12 . 
     In the illustrated embodiment, at least a portion of the at least one outer wall  34   a  includes a projection  40   a  which extends a distance D below a bottom surface  35   a  of outer wall  34   a . Projection  40   a  may further include a piercing tip  42   a  configured to pierce a sealing surface  74   a  to unseal the beverage within beverage container  10 . In an embodiment, projection  40   a  may further be angled outwardly or inwardly to facilitate piercing of sealing surface  74   a  when lid  14  is rotated with respect to body  12 . In an embodiment, projection  40   a  may protrude from top surface  20  and/or side surface  21  instead of from outer wall  34   a.    
     In the illustrated embodiment, second aperture structure  24   b  includes a second aperture  32   b  through top surface  20 . In the illustrated embodiment, second aperture  32   b  is surrounded by at least one outer wall  34   b . In an embodiment, the at least one outer wall  34   b  may create a conical or cylindrical structure surrounding second aperture  32   b  and may extend between a first or top aperture portion  36   b  of second aperture  32   b  and a second or bottom aperture portion  38   b  of aperture  32   b . In the illustrated embodiment, second aperture portion  38   b  is larger than first aperture portion  36   b  to create a conical structure, but those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that different shapes and sizes for first aperture portion  36   b  and second aperture portion  38   b  are suitable for use with the beverage containers disclosed herein. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, at least a portion of the at least one outer wall  34   b  includes a projection  40   b  which extends a distance D below a bottom surface  35   b  of outer wall  34   b . Projection  40   b  may further include a piercing tip  42   b  configured to pierce a sealing surface  74   b  to unseal the beverage within beverage container  10 . In an embodiment, projection  40   b  may further be angled outwardly or inwardly to facilitate piercing of sealing surface  74   b  when lid  14  is rotated with respect to body  12 . In an embodiment, projection  40   b  may protrude from top surface  20  and/or side surface  21  instead of from outer wall  34   b.    
     In the illustrated embodiment, lip  22  includes a bottom surface  44  which may be pressed against an outer rim  62  of body  12  when beverage container  10  is unsealed and/or when lid  14  is attached to body  12 . In the illustrated embodiment, lip  22  is shown as a straight horizontal surface, but lip  22  and/or bottom surface  44  may also be angled to improve the contact between bottom surface  44  and outer rim  62  of body  12  when beverage container  10  is unsealed and/or when lid  14  is attached to body  12 . 
     One or more protrusion  26  may extend inwardly from outer wall  21  of lid  14 . In the illustrated embodiment, the protrusions  26  are inwardly facing round or cylindrical protuberances which extend into and interact with a corresponding outer tab  80  of body  12 , as explained in more detail below. Other suitable shapes besides a round or cylindrical protuberance may also be used. In the illustrated embodiment, lid  14  includes four protrusions  26 , equidistantly spaced 90° apart on the inner perimeter of lid  14 , but those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that more or less protrusions  26  may be used, and that the spacing between protrusions  26  may be altered besides as shown in the illustrated example. In use, the one or more protrusions  26  protrude to contact a track of a corresponding outer tab  80  of body  12  and enable at least one of: (i) lid  14  to be attached to body  12 ; and/or (ii) body  12  to be unsealed. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, body  12  includes a top surface  66 , at least one side surface  68 , and a bottom surface  70 , which surfaces may seal a beverage within body  12  in an airtight manner. Body  12  may be formed, for example, from plastic, a metal such as aluminum, or another suitable material. Body  12  may further be formed in other shapes and sizes besides as shown in the illustrated embodiment, with additional surfaces added. 
       FIG. 7  illustrates the top surface  66  of body  12 . In the illustrated embodiment, top surface  66  includes a main surface  72  and at least one sealing surface  74  which covers at least one body aperture  73 . The at least one sealing surface  74  may be made of the same material as main surface  72 , or may be made of a different material than main surface  72 . In an embodiment, at least one sealing surface  74  may include a breakaway plastic seal, for example, a plastic membrane material, or may include an aluminum material. In an embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  74  is integrally formed with the main surface  72 . 
     In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  74  is attached to main surface  72  by at least one break line  76 , wherein the at least one sealing surface  74  on one side of break line  76  may break away from main surface  72  on the other side of break line  76  when a force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  74  and/or main surface  72 . In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  74  is broken from main surface  72  across the at least one break line  76  when a downward force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  74  by projection  40  (e.g. first projection  40   a  or second projection  40   b ). In an alternative embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  74  may be broken from main surface  72  across the at least one break line  76  when an upward and/or sideways force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  74  by projection  40 . 
     In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  74  includes three break lines  76  and a fold line  78 . Fold line  78  is configured to enable the at least one sealing surface  74  to bend and/or rotate with respect to main surface  72  while remaining attached to main surface  72 . In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  74  breaks along the three break lines  76  and bends into body  12  along fold line  78  when a force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  74  by projection  40 . In an alternative embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  74  breaks along the three break lines  76  and bends upwardly from body  12  along fold line  78  when a force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  74  by projection  40 . Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that more or less break lines  76  and/or fold lines  78  may be used. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  74  includes a first sealing surface  74   a  and a second sealing surface  74   b  (shown generally as reference number  74  in some figures). First sealing surface  74   a  is configured to align with first aperture structure  24   a  when beverage container  10  is unsealed, enabling a user to drink the beverage through first aperture structure  24   a . Second sealing surface  74   b  is configured to align with second aperture structure  24   b  when beverage container  10  is unsealed, enabling air to pass from the outside environment into contact with the beverage within beverage container  10  so that the beverage may flow freely to the user through first aperture structure  24   a.    
     In the illustrated embodiment, each of first sealing surface  74   a  and second sealing surface  74   b  are formed as trapezoids with top and bottom break lines  76  which curve with different radiuses taken from the center of top surface  66 . This configuration is advantageous, for example, because a projection  40  may sweep through a sealing surface  74  as lid  14  is rotated with respect to body  12 . It should be understood, however, that sealing surfaces  74  may be formed with other shapes as well. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, body  12  includes at least one outer tab  80  projecting outwardly from at least one side surface  68  and/or from top surface  66 . In the illustrated embodiment, body  12  includes four outer tabs  80  equidistantly spaced 90° apart along the outer perimeter of at least one side surface  68 , but those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that more or less outer tabs  80  may be used, and that the spacing between outer tabs  80  may be altered besides as shown in the illustrated example. In use, the outer tabs  80  each receive a corresponding protrusion  26  of lid  14  and enable at least one of: (i) lid  14  to be attached to body  12 ; and/or (ii) body  12  to be unsealed. 
       FIG. 8  illustrates an example embodiment of an outer tab  80  in more detail. In the illustrated embodiment, outer tab  80  includes a first side surface  82 , a second side surface  84 , and one or more lower track surface  86  extending between first side surface  82  and second side surface  84 . In the illustrated embodiment, track surface  86  includes a first angled portion  88 , a first indentation  89 , a second angled portion  90 , and a second indentation  91 . In use, a protrusion  26  translates along track surface  86  to enable at least one of: (i) lid  14  to be attached to body  12 ; and/or (ii) body  12  to be unsealed. 
       FIGS. 9A to 11B  illustrate an example embodiment of how lid  14  may be attached to body  12  via rotation of lid  14  with respect to body  12 , and how beverage container  10  may be unsealed by additional rotation of lid  14  with respect to body  12 . In the illustrated embodiment,  FIGS. 9A, 10A and 11A  show the relationship between cross-sections of lid  14  and body  12  to unseal beverage container  10 , while  FIGS. 9B, 10B and 11B  illustrate the corresponding relationship of protrusion  26  and outer tab  80  which cause the movement shown in  FIGS. 9A, 10A, and 11A , respectively. Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that modifications may be made to the methods and structures shown herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the beverage containers discussed herein. 
       FIG. 9A  illustrates beverage container  10  once lid  14  has been initially attached to body  12 . At this point, beverage container  10  is still sealed. Lid  14  may be attached to body  12 , for example, by (i) aligning protrusion  26  with first side surface  82  of outer tab  80 , (ii) pressing lid  14  downward towards body  12  as protrusion  26  slides along first side surface  82 , and (iii) rotating lid  14  with respect to body  12  such that protrusion  26  slides along first angled portion  88  of track surface  86  and into first indentation  89 . 
     In  FIGS. 9A and 9B , protrusion  26  is held within first indentation  89 , for example, by the force of lid  14  pressing against body  12 . In the illustrated embodiment, projection  40  (e.g. first projection  40   a  or second projection  40   b ) lies against main surface  72 , and the force of projection  40  pushing against main surface  72  holds lid  14  to body  12  with beverage container  10  still sealed. 
       FIG. 10A  illustrates beverage container  10  just as the seal is broken between the beverage therein and the outer environment. The seal may be broken, for example, (i) by pushing lid  14  towards body  12  to dislodge protrusion  26  from first indentation  89 ; and/or (ii) by rotating lid  14  with respect to body  12  such that protrusion  26  translates along second angled portion  90 . In the illustrated embodiment, the seal breaks when projection  40  presses against the at least one sealing surface  74 , causing the at least one sealing surface  74  to be broken away from main surface  72  along at least one break line  76 . 
       FIG. 11A  illustrates beverage container  10  once lid  14  has been fully rotated with respect to body  12  to completely unseal the beverage within body  12 . As illustrated, as projection  40  is swept to the side (e.g., around rotational axis A R1  in  FIGS. 1A and 2A ) while protrusion  26  translates along second angled portion  90 , projection  40  sweeps the at least one sealing surface  74  to the side, rotating the at least one sealing surface along fold line  78 , so that the at least one sealing surface  74  does not disrupt flow of the beverage through aperture  73  and/or aperture structure  24 . When protrusion  26  reaches a second indentation  91 , as illustrated in  FIG. 11B , lid  14  and body  12  are locked into the configuration shown in  FIG. 11A , wherein aperture structure  24  is aligned with a corresponding body aperture  73  in main surface  72  where the at least one sealing surface  74  used to be. 
     As protrusion  26  travels along second angled portion  90  between the configurations shown in  FIGS. 10B and 10C , the angled nature of second angled portion  90  pulls lid  14  towards body  12 , causing one or more of: (i) bottom surface  44  of lip  22  to press against outer rim  62  of body  12 , thus sealing the outer perimeter of beverage container  10 ; and/or (ii) causing bottom surface  35  of the at least one outer wall  34  to press against main surface  72 , thus sealing the outer perimeter of aperture structure  24  around body aperture  73  so that the beverage and/or air may pass therethrough. 
     It should be understood from this disclosure that  FIGS. 9 to 11  illustrate the unsealing of first sealing surface  74   a  and/or the unsealing of second sealing surface  74   b , which may both be opened simultaneously by the rotation of lid  14  with respect to body  12  due to the positioning and configuration of first sealing surface  74   a  and second sealing surface  74   b  on opposite sides of top surface  66  of body  12 . Looking from the same side view at first sealing surface  74   a  and second sealing surface  74   b , first sealing surface  74   a  would open in one direction, and second sealing surface  74   b  would open in the opposite direction, with both directions being the same rotational direction around the center of lid  14  and/or body  12  (e.g., around direction D 1  in  FIGS. 1A and 2A ). 
     In an embodiment, all or a portion of lid  14  may be made transparent, so that a user may inspect the at least one sealing surface  74  prior to opening the beverage container  10  to ensure that the at least one sealing surface  74  has not been compromised and that the beverage within beverage container  10  is safe to drink. In another embodiment, lid  14  may include one or more additional aperture to allow visual inspection of at least one sealing surface  74 . 
     In an embodiment, body  12  and lid  14  may be formed of different materials. For example, body  12  may be formed of a metal such as aluminum which may assist in keeping the beverage therein colder for a longer period of time, while lid  14  may be formed of another material such as plastic so that the user does not have to press his or her lips up against a metal to drink the beverage. This configuration may be advantageous, for example, because certain beverages may taste differently when consumed directly from metal such as aluminum. In an alternative embodiment, body  12  and lid  14  may be formed from the same material. 
       FIGS. 12 and 13  illustrate another example embodiment of a beverage container  110  according to the present disclosure.  FIGS. 12A and 13A  illustrate beverage container  110  in a sealed configuration wherein a beverage is sealed from the outside environment, while  FIGS. 12B and 13B  illustrate beverage container  110  in an unsealed configuration wherein a user may drink the beverage. It should be understood that any of the features of beverage container  10  may be combined with the features of beverage container  110 , and vice versa. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, beverage container  110  includes a body  112  and a lid  114 . Lid  114  may be removably attached to body  112  by pushing lid  114  towards body  112  and/or rotating lid  114  with respect to body  112  (e.g., rotating lid  114  with respect to body  112  in the direction D 2  around the rotational axis A R2  through the center of lid  114  and/or body  112 ). Attachment of lid  114  to body  112  is discussed in more detail below. In the illustrated embodiment, the beverage within body  112  is sealed from the outside environment until after lid  114  is attached to body  112  and used to unseal the beverage. 
       FIGS. 14 to 16  illustrate an example embodiment of lid  114  in more detail. In the illustrated embodiment, lid  114  includes one or more of a top surface  120 , one or more side surface  121 , a lip  122 , one or more aperture structure  124 , one or more protrusion  126 , and one or more projection  140 . Lid  114  may be formed, for example, from plastic, a metal such as aluminum, another suitable material, or a combination of multiple suitable materials. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one aperture structure  124  includes a first aperture structure  124   a  and a second aperture structure  124   b  (shown generally as reference number  124  in some figures). First aperture structure  124   a  is configured to provide a drinking aperture for the user, while second aperture structure  124   b  is configured to enable air to pass from the outside environment into contact with the beverage within beverage container  110  so that the beverage may flow freely to the user through first aperture structure  124   a . In an embodiment, first aperture structure  124   a  may be larger than second aperture structure  124   b , but the shapes and sizes of first aperture structure  124   a  and second aperture structure  124   b  may vary in different embodiments. In an embodiment, beverage container  110  may be formed with only a single aperture structure  124   a.    
     In the illustrated embodiment, first aperture structure  124   a  includes a first aperture  132   a  through top surface  120 . In the illustrated embodiment, first aperture  132   a  is surrounded by at least one outer wall  134   a , which extends from top surface  120  to a bottom surface  135   a . In an embodiment, the at least one outer wall  134   a  may create a conical or cylindrical structure surrounding first aperture  132   a  and may extend between a first or top aperture portion  136   a  of first aperture  132   a  and a second or bottom aperture portion  138   a  of first aperture  132   a . In the illustrated embodiment, second aperture portion  138   a  is larger than first aperture portion  136   a  to create a conical structure, but those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that different shapes and sizes for first aperture portion  136   a  and second aperture portion  138   a  are suitable for use with the beverage containers discussed herein. In the illustrated embodiment, first aperture portion  136   a  is located near a user&#39;s lips when the user is drinking the beverage from beverage container  110 , while second aperture portion  138   a  is placed near body  112  to receive the beverage and enable the beverage to flow through aperture  132   a  to the user. An advantage of the present disclosure is that different types of lids  114  with different types of aperture structures  124  for different types of beverages may be easily interchanged with different types of bodies  112 . 
     In the illustrated embodiment, second aperture structure  124   b  includes a second aperture  132   b  through top surface  120 . In the illustrated embodiment, second aperture  132   b  is surrounded by at least one outer wall  134   b , which extends from top surface  120  to a bottom surface  135   b . In an embodiment, the at least one outer wall  134   b  may create a conical or cylindrical structure surrounding second aperture  132   b  and may extend between a first or top aperture portion  136   b  of second aperture  132   b  and a second or bottom aperture portion  138   b  of second aperture  132   b . In the illustrated embodiment, second aperture portion  138   b  is larger than first aperture portion  136   b  to create a conical structure, but those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that different shapes and sizes for first aperture portion  136   b  and second aperture portion  138   b  are suitable for use with the beverage containers discussed herein. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, the one or more projection  140  includes a first projection  140   a  configured to open first sealing surface  174   a  by causing a first pull tab  175   a  to apply pressure to first sealing surface  174   a , and includes a second projection  140   b  configured to open second sealing surface  174   b  by causing a second pull tab  175   b  to apply pressure to second sealing surface  174   b . The method for opening the first and second sealing surfaces  174   a ,  174   b  using the first and second projections  140   a ,  140   b  occurs when lid  114  is rotated with respect to body  112  and is discussed in more detail below. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, lip  122  includes a bottom surface  144  which may be pressed against an outer rim  162  of body  112  when lid  114  is attached to body  112  and/or when body  112  is unsealed. In the illustrated embodiment, lip  122  is shown as a straight horizontal surface, but lip  122  may also be angled to improve the contact between bottom surface  144  and outer rim  162  of body  112  when lid  114  is attached to body  112  and/or when body  112  is unsealed. 
     The one or more protrusion  126  may include, for example, a ring that extends inwardly from outer wall  121  of lid  114 . In the illustrated embodiment, a ring extends all the way around the inner perimeter of outer wall  121 , but ring  146  may also be broken into smaller, alternating protrusions  126 . In the illustrated embodiment, the one or more protrusions  126  enable lid  114  to snap-fit over outer rim  162  of body  112 , which in an embodiment may be the standard outer rim of an aluminum can. In use, the one or more protrusion  126  may snap-fit lid  114  onto body  114  and enable at least one of: (i) lid  114  to be attached to body  112 ; and/or (ii) body  112  to be unsealed. In the illustrated embodiment, the one or more protrusion  126  enables lid  114  to be rotated with respect to body  112  once lid  114  has been attached to body  112 , so that lid  114  may be used to unseal the beverage within body  112 . 
     In the illustrated embodiment, body  112  includes a top surface  166 , at least one side surface  168 , and a bottom surface  170 , which surfaces may seal a beverage within body  112  in an airtight manner. Body  112  may be formed, for example, from plastic, a metal such as aluminum, or another suitable material. In the illustrated embodiment, body  112  is formed as a standard aluminum can. Body  112  may further be formed in other shapes and sizes besides as shown in the illustrated embodiment, with additional surfaces added. 
       FIG. 17  illustrates the top surface  166  of body  112 . In the illustrated embodiment, top surface  166  includes a main surface  172 , at least one sealing surface  174  (shown as  174   a  and  174   b  in some figures) which covers a body aperture  173 , and at least one pull tab  175  (shown as  175   a  and  175   b  in some figures). The at least one sealing surface  174  may be made of the same material as main surface  172 , or may be made of a different material than main surface  172 . In an embodiment, at least one sealing surface  174  may include a breakaway plastic seal, for example, a plastic membrane material. In another embodiment, the main surface and the at least one sealing surface may both be made of the same material (e.g., aluminum or plastic) and separated by at least one break line  176 . 
     In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  174  is attached to main surface  172  by at least one break line  176 , wherein the at least one sealing surface  174  on one side of break line  176  may break away from main surface  172  on the other side of break line  176  when a force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  174  and/or main surface  172 . In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  174  is broken from main surface  172  across the at least one break line  176  when a downward force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  174  by pull tab  175 . In an alternative embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  174  may be broken from main surface  172  across the at least one break line  176  when an upward and/or sideways force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  174  by pull tab  175 . 
     In the illustrated embodiment the at least one sealing surface  174  includes three break lines  176  and a fold line  178 . Fold line  178  is configured to enable the at least one sealing surface  174  to bend and/or rotate with respect to main surface  172  while remaining attached to main surface  172 . In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  174  breaks along the three break lines  176  and bends into or away from body  112  along fold line  178  when a force is applied to the at least one sealing surface  174  by pull tab  175 . Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that more or less break lines  176  and/or fold lines  178  may be used. 
     In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one sealing surface  174  includes a first sealing surface  174   a  and a second sealing surface  174   b  (shown generally as reference number  174  in some figures). First sealing surface  174   a  is configured to align with first aperture structure  124   a  when beverage container  110  is unsealed, enabling a user to drink the beverage through first aperture structure  124   a . Second sealing surface  174   b  is configured to align with second aperture structure  124   b  when beverage container  110  is unsealed, enabling air to pass from the outside environment into contact with the beverage within beverage container  110  so that the beverage may flow freely to the user through first aperture structure  124   a.    
     In the illustrated embodiment, the at least one pull tab  175  includes a first pull tab  175   a  and a second pull tab  175   b  (shown generally as reference number  175  in some figures). In the illustrated embodiment, first pull tab  175   a  is mounted to first sealing surface  174   a , and second pull tab  175   b  is mounted to second sealing surface  174   b . In an alternative embodiment, one or both of first pull tab  175   a  and/or second pull tab  174   b  may be attached to main surface  172 . In an embodiment, one or both of first pull tab  175   a  and/or second pull tab  174   b  may be attached to a sealing surface  174  and/or main surface  172  using a rivet. In another embodiment, pull tab  175  may be integrally formed with sealing surface  174 . As explained in more detail below, pull tab  175   a  may be caused to open first sealing surface  174   a  by a force applied by first projection  140   a  when lid  114  is rotated, while pull tab  175   b  may be caused to open second sealing surface  174   b  by a force applied by second projection  140   b  when lid  114  is rotated. 
       FIGS. 18 and 19  illustrate body  114  in more detail. As illustrated, top surface  166  and the at least one side surface  168  may be formed of separate materials, e.g. aluminum or plastic, wherein outer rim  162  of body  112  is created by forming top surface  166  over the at least one side surface  168  using suitable manufacturing methods known in the art. 
       FIGS. 20A to 20D  illustrate an example embodiment of how lid  114  may be rotated with respect to body  114  to unseal the beverage within beverage container  110 . Those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize from this disclosure that modifications may be made to the methods and structures shown without departing from the spirit and scope of the beverage containers discussed herein. 
       FIG. 20A  illustrates beverage container  110  once lid  114  has been initially attached to body  112 . At this point, beverage container  110  is still sealed. Lid  114  may be attached to body  112 , for example by snap-fit as explained above, so as to allow lid  114  to rotate fully or at least partially with respect to body  112 . In  FIG. 20A , projection  140  is aligned with pull tab  175  but not yet applying a force to pull tab  175 . 
       FIG. 20B  shows lid  114  slightly rotated with respect to body  112  in comparison with  FIG. 20A , such that projection  140  has entered an aperture of pull tab  175  and caused pull tab  175  to break the seal between the beverage within body  112  and the outer environment.  FIG. 20B  illustrates beverage container  110  just as the seal is broken between the beverage within body  112  and the outer environment. The seal may be broken, for example, by using projection  140  to push pull tab  175  into the sealing surface  174  (e.g., pushing the top of pull tab to the right in  FIG. 20B , thus forcing the bottom of pull tab  175  downward). In the illustrated embodiment, the seal is broken when pull tab  175  presses downwardly against the sealing surface  174 , causing the sealing surface  174  to be broken from main surface  172  along break line  176 . In an alternative embodiment, pull tab  175  may not push downwardly onto the sealing surface  174 , and may instead unseal the beverage by pulling upwardly on the sealing surface  174  as illustrated in  FIG. 20C  (e.g.,  FIG. 20B  may be skipped). 
       FIG. 20C  shows lid  114  slightly rotated with respect to body  112  in comparison with  FIG. 20B , such that projection  140  has pulled pull tab  175  to the right, thereby causing pull tab  175  to pull upwardly on the sealing surface  174 , thus also pulling the sealing surface  174  to the right. 
       FIG. 20D  shows lid  114  slightly rotated with respect to body  112  in comparison with  FIG. 20C , such that projection  140  has pulled pull tab  175  and the sealing surface  174  all the way to the right, thereby completely unsealing the beverage within body  112  and aligning aperture structure  124  with a corresponding aperture  173  in main surface  172  where the sealing surface  174  used to be. With the sealing surface  174  pulled all the way to the side, the sealing surface  174  does not disrupt flow of the beverage through aperture  173  and/or aperture structure  124 . 
     It should be understood from this disclosure that  FIGS. 20A to 20D  illustrate the opening of first sealing surface  174   a  and/or the opening of second sealing surface  174   b , which may both be opened simultaneously by the rotation of lid  114  with respect to body  112  due to the positioning and configuration of first sealing surface  174   a  and second sealing surface  174   b  on opposite sides of top surface  166  of body  112 . Looking from the same side view at first sealing surface  174   a  and second sealing surface  174   b , first sealing surface  174   a  would open in one direction, and second sealing surface  174   b  would open in the opposite direction, as illustrated for example by  FIG. 13B , with both directions being the same rotational direction around the center of lid  114  and/or body  112 . 
       FIGS. 21A to 21C  illustrate an alternative embodiment of  FIGS. 20A to 20D  in which pull tab  175  is oriented in the opposite direction to overlay sealing surface  174  when viewed from above (e.g., when viewed from the perspective of  FIG. 17 ). As illustrated, projection  140  causes pull tab  175  to pull upwardly on sealing surface  174  when projection  140  pulls pull tab  175  to the side as lid  114  is rotated with respect to body  112 . 
     In an embodiment, all or a portion of lid  114  may be made transparent, so that a user may inspect the at least one sealing surface  174  prior to opening the beverage to ensure that the at least one sealing surface  174  has not been compromised and that the beverage within beverage container  110  is safe to drink. In another embodiment, lid  114  may include one or more additional aperture to allow visual inspection of at least one sealing surface  174 . 
     In an embodiment, body  112  and lid  114  may be formed of different materials. For example, body  114  may be formed of a metal such as aluminum which may assist in keeping the beverage therein colder and/or fresher for a longer period of time, while lid  114  may be formed of another material such as plastic so that the user does not have to press his or her lips up against a metal to drink the beverage. This configuration may be advantageous, for example, because certain beverages may taste differently when consumed directly from metal. In an alternative embodiment, body  112  and lid  114  may be formed from the same material. 
     It should be understood that modifications may be made to the above-described embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure.  FIGS. 22, 23 and 24  illustrate a few such modifications. 
       FIGS. 22A to 22C  illustrate an example embodiment in which the at least one sealing surface  74 / 174  is placed on top of and/or partially overlaps the main surface  72 / 172 , and wherein the projection  40 / 140  includes a wedge shape which protrudes outwardly from the outer wall  34 / 134  of aperture structure  24 / 124 . As lid  14 / 114  rotates with respect to body  12 / 112 , projection  40 / 140  wedges underneath the at least one sealing surface  74 / 174 , lifting and rotating the at least one sealing surface to unseal the beverage and reveal a body aperture  73 / 173 . 
       FIGS. 23A to 23C  illustrate an example embodiment in which the at least one sealing surface  74 / 174  is placed on top of and/or partially overlaps the main surface  72 / 172  and slides parallel to main surface  72 / 172  when pushed to the side by the outer wall  34 / 134  of aperture structure  24 / 124 . As lid  14 / 114  rotates with respect to body  12 / 112 , outer wall  34 / 134  displaces the at least one sealing surface  74 / 174 , pushing the at least one sealing surface  74 / 174  over the main surface to reveal a body aperture  73 / 173 . 
     In an alternative embodiment, rotation of lid  14 / 114  with respect to body  12 / 112  may not unseal at least one sealing surface  74 / 174 . Rotation of lid  14 / 114  with respect to body  12 / 112  may simply align one or more aperture or aperture structure  24 / 124  with one or more sealing surface  74 / 174 , so that the user may manually unseal the sealing surface  74 / 174 , for example, by pulling a pull tab or poking a straw through the one or more sealing surface. 
     The embodiments disclosed herein further show projection  40 / 140  protruding from a top surface  20 / 120  or another element attached thereto. It should further be understood that embodiments may be constructed with the projection  40 / 140  protruding from aside wall  21 / 121 . 
     In an embodiment, a lid  14 / 114  according to the present disclosure may be formed to assist the user with rotation of the lid  14 / 114  with respect to the body  12 / 112 .  FIG. 24  illustrates an example embodiment of a lid  14 / 114  including one or more gripping protuberances  52 / 152  that a user may grip to rotate lid  14 / 114 . 
     In an embodiment, projection  40 / 140  may break the seal of sealing surface when lid  14 / 114  is pushed or translated downwardly towards body  12 / 112  without rotation, for example, by applying a force to sealing surface  74 / 174  to push sealing surface  74 / 174  into body  12 / 112 . Rotation of lid  14 / 114  with respect body  12 / 112  may occur before or after the downward translation to align certain elements as described above. In an embodiment, rotation may be excluded, and lid  14 / 114  may only be attached to body  12 / 112  in a configuration which enables projection  40 / 140  to break the seal of sealing surface  74 / 174  when lid  14 / 114  is pushed or translated downwardly towards body  12 / 112 . 
     It should be understood from the present disclosure that the embodiments described herein may also be used to seal liquids besides drinkable beverages. 
     Modifications in addition to those described above may be made to the structures and techniques described herein without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure. Accordingly, although specific embodiments have been described, these are examples only and are not limiting on the scope of the disclosure. 
     Additional Aspects of the Disclosure
