Abstract: A beverage cooler having an insulated housing wherein the housing has a bottom and top with the top including a (i) center opening configured to receive a removable lid and (ii) a threaded member on an underside thereof and substantially circumscribing the center opening with the threaded member configured to removably receive a first shaker receptacle within a portion of a total volume defined by the housing. The first shaker receptacle may receive a second shaker receptacle therein such that the first shaker receptacle acts as a sleeve to keep the second shaker receptacle out of contact with a liquid in the beverage cooler. The first and second shaker receptacles may be removed by removing the top and unscrewing the first shaker receptacle from the threaded member on the underside of the top.
