Abstract: A shaker cup is provided that allows a user choose when to blend a mix, within a pod, with a liquid. The shaker cup includes a lid which has a spout. The shaker cup includes a container which has a reservoir, which is able to hold a liquid. The shaker cup may have a pod placed within, which is sized and shaped to allow the liquid to flow from the reservoir around the pod, and through the spout. The shaker cup also includes a pod holder which has a pod holder mechanism that, in a first position, allows the pod holder to selectively retain the pod or, in a second position, release the pod. The pod holder further includes an actuating mechanism for selectively allowing the pod holder to move between its first and second positions. The container is able to selectively engage with the lid.
