Abstract

A container for a potable liquid in the form of an elongated cylinder provided with two holes in the top thereof. A drinking straw passes from the liquid through one of the holes, forms a loop outside the container, and the outer end of the straw is insertable into the second hole. The straw fits snugly in the two holes in a manner such that the loop can serve as a handle for carrying the container.
