I have both the Yeti and the Sam's version which are exactly the same thing and I did a test...Filled both with same number of ice cubes and filled with water. Left both in hot sun (90+ degree day) starting at 10:00 AM. At 10:00 AM the following day, both tumblers still had ice in it.

Unless it takes you more than 24 hours to finish your drink, whatever effect the sun has through the clear top simply would not seem to matter...
