  • Publication number: 20060151496
    Abstract: A cup (10) is disclosed which enables a user to draw beverages from two or more receptacles (14, 16) within the cup (10) through straws (20, 22) extending through a lid (18) into the respective receptacles (14, 16). The size of the straws (20, 22) may differ so that beverages of different viscosities can be drawn at the same rate from the respective receptacles (14, 16). The separate receptacles (14, 16) may be formed by a divider (12) in a single cup; alternatively, or separate receptacles may be molded and secured together by integrally molded components on the respective receptacles or by an additional element such as an elastic band. The lid (18) and cup (10) may also include complementary means to ensure that the lid (18) can only be placed on the cup with the straws extending into the proper receptacles.
