A drink container holder comprises three members: a mounting base having a mounting device for mounting within a vehicle such as an automobile, a holding framework for holding a cup, and an intermediate pivotable framework interposed between the mounting base and the holding framework, the three members being pivotably connected to one another through means of pivotable shaft bearing portions. The mounting device comprises a substantially inverted U-shaped bracket, and the mounting base has dependent bearing portions integrally suspended therefrom. A substantially U-shaped bail member is provided upon the holding framework, and the mounting base, holding framework, and intermediate framework are pivotable with respect to each other about two axes orthogonally arranged with respect to each other such that the three members define in effect gimbal rings for supporting the drink container.
