Abstract: An enclosing cup includes a base, an enclosing container for holding liquid, a handle and a mouth. The enclosing container is supported by the base. The mouth is supported by the enclosing container. The enclosing container incorporates a cavity for containing liquid, and an aperture. The mouth communicates with the cavity via the aperture. Liquid flows into and out of the cavity via the aperture and the mouth. The handle is disposed within the enclosing container. The liquid is disposed around the handle and a user's hand that holds the handle. The handle makes contact with the inner side of the enclosing container at one or more points. The handle allows a user to hold and operate the enclosing cup, while the mouth of the enclosing cup allows the user to drink the liquid out of the enclosing cup.
