A beverage container having a bottom that has been deformed such that it has a fingerlike projection that extends upward over halfway into the center of the container, where the container also has a multi-sectional drinking straw that fits over and is held upright by the projection and a closing lid that snaps on the rim. The beverage container is substantially bifrustoconical in shape, and it can be secured to a tray or drink holder equipped with a vertical element that inserts into the hollow deformation in the bottom.

A beverage container having substantially a frustoconical hollow core external body member, wherein the core of the external body member shall be referred to as the inside, where said external body member terminates in a rim at an upper extremity and a base at the other extremity, wherein said base

A beverage container having substantially a frustoconical hollow core external body member, wherein the core of the external body member shall be referred to as the inside, where said external body member terminates in a rim at an upper extremity and a base at the other extremity, wherein said base is contiguous with an internal body member, said internal body member forming a bottom of the beverage container, wherein said internal body member is also a functional component and a fastening means of a unique multi-sectional straw, and a component of a fastening means for temporarily attaching the beverage container to a surface, the improvement in combination therewith comprising: a. an internal body member that is substantially a second, smaller inverted, conical hollow core frustum terminating in an apical closure at the upper extremity and open ended and fitted with a joining flange at the other extremity, where the flange integrally joins the internal body member to the base of the external body member forming, substantially, a bifrustoconical container, where the frustum of the internal body member emanates centrally, coaxially and upwardly from the inside of the base, wherein the inverted hollow core frustum results inn a beverage container having a bottom with two functional fastening means, one fastening means for securing the container to a fastening device having a vertical fastening element, wherein fastening is affected by interpositioning the vertical fastening element within the core of the internal body member, and a second fastening means for holding upright a unique multi-sectional straw; b. a multi-sectional straw, which rests and is superimposed on the frustum of the internal body member, wherein said multi-sectional straw is comprised of an upper substantially linear tubular section, a lower hollow core frustoconical section, and an intermediate expander section which integrally joins the tubular section to the frustoconical section, where the multi-sectional straw has an overall length that is sufficient to extend from the base of the beverage container to above the rim, where the frustoconical section of the straw is sized such that when superimposed on the frustum of the internal body member, the superimposed straw and the internal body member form a thin annular chamber between an inside surface of the core of the straw and an outside surface of the frustum of the internal body member, wherein said annular chamber enables a fluid to be conveyed, under the force of slight suction, from the inside at the base of the container upward through and out of the tubular section of the straw; c. a closing lid which fastens to the rim of the beverage container, where said lid has a closed straw passage and an opening means, and where the passage is of sufficient size to allow an inserted straw to pass through when the passage is open.
