Abstract

Methods and apparatus are provided for a platform adapted to fit atop a first drinking container and provide a stable surface for securely supporting a second drinking container stacked atop the first. In one exemplary embodiment the platform is a flat circular plate bounded at a perimeter edge by a first cylindrical wall on one side of the plate and a second cylindrical wall on the other side of the plate. The cylindrical walls may each include a cut-out to provide clearance for a handle on one of the drinking containers.
