Abstract
The present invention provides a removable flexible holder for an open-top liquid container which is especially designed to be used in an automobile or other type of vehicle. The holder uses a flexible hinge for its base which enables the holder to expand or contract to accommodate various sizes of containers. The holder also has an attachment means which adjusts to almost any size of car door due to a bendable hinge which resiliently urges the holder against the car door. Additionally, the holder has a slot which will accommodate a container having a handle such as a mug.
