A holder attachable to a person\s belt supports an open drink container in an upright condition so that the container can be removed to consume its contents. In a preferred embodiment, the container is a wide-mouthed container with a removable lid and the holder has an upper retaining portion for reception of the container in a downward direction to a preselected operative position. A lower stop portion carried with the retaining portion engages the bottom of the container in the operative position thereof to support the weight of the container. An intermediate portion can also be provided between the retaining portion and the stop portion to press inwardly against the container and stabilize it against substantially lateral forces.
