Abstract: The present invention relates to a drinking vessel having a top end, a bottom end, a drinking compartment and a base integrally connected to the drinking compartment. The base has an exterior surface facing outwards from the vessel that is imperforate to inhibit drippings from entering within the base. A receptacle is integral with and sealably connected to the base of the vessel to inhibit drippings from entering within the base under the drinking compartment. The receptacle extends radially outwardly from the base, around the base and at least partially towards the top end. It has an opening facing the top end of the vessel, whereby the receptacle is capable of receiving drippings from the top end of the vessel when the vessel is upright, inhibiting the drippings from escaping therefrom when drinking out of the vessel, and allowing drippings to freely exit therefrom when the vessel is upside down.
