A drinking cup defining a cup-shaped base, including an upper terminal end securably mounting a lid thereon, wherein the lid includes a guide bore directed coaxially of the lid and aligned with an axis defined by the cup. A drinking tube is slidably directed through the bore, with the drinking tube including an abutment formed about the tube below the bore. A modification of the invention includes the abutment formed of an upper and lower cup-shaped disk member defining a cavity therebetween, wherein the cavity is arranged to receive a fluid soluble food component therewithin for enhancing flavor of fluid directed through the tube.
