The closure unit has the property of selectively uncovering or closing a drinking opening in the lid surface. On the outer side of the lid a foil which, on the outer side of the lid, covers the closure unit and, around the closure unit, is entirely connected to the lid surface so as to be tight in such a manner that, on account of the connection between the foil and the lid surface, ingress of moisture is prevented or at least substantially prevented, is disposed.
