Not sure which effect to use to apply a logo to the front of a tumbler/glass.
Is there a quick way to accomplish this such that the logo appears to wrap around the sides of the tumbler?

To better advise you - it would help if you showed us both a photo of the tumbler and the logo.
As there are often many ways in Illustrator (like most Adobe programs) to accomplish the same thing - often with similar results...
However IMHO...Some results work better than others though depending on your needs.
Best,
EW

The tumbler image on the right is manufacturer provided image showing a logo on it. The tumbler on the left is a blank tumbler
with my MCI logo I am trying to give the same effect as on the right.

Jacob mentioned 3D mapping. Here's a way to try that:

Douglas,
The term
appears to wrap
might lead to a suggestion of mapping on a 3D rendering or something like Effect>Warp>Arch.
Actual wrapping for live use may call for an Effect>Warp>Arc.
And what EW said.

Are you referring to wrapping the logo to a drawing or photo as John demonstrated?
Or are you looking at distorting the logo so it looks right when applied to an actual tumbler/glass?
I pretty sure the two would need to be done totally differently to compensate for the slight cone shape on a real tumbler. I know there are special Plugins that are made for the packaging industry for this issue. But packaging is out of my area of expertise.
I'm just guessing here, but I think if you used John's method describe above, but mapped the logo upside down you would get the correct results for an actual tumbler/glass.
Just think about this gave me a headache.
