[ What is claimed as new is as follows:] [1.] A beverage cup holder comprising a sleeve including a pair of panels adapted to extend from an upper lip portion of a beverage cup downwardly alongside a peripheral wall of the beverage cup and terminating below a bottom of the beverage cup to support the beverage cup from a support surface, upper edges of said panels including outwardly extending components at opposite end portions thereof, said outwardly extending components being pivotally connected enabling a lower portion of said panels to diverge outwardly to engage a support surface over an area larger than a bottom of the beverage cup to stabilize the cup when supported by the cup holder on a support surface, said panels generally enclosing the peripheral wall of the cup and insulating the hand of a beverage consumer from temperature differences of the cup when a beverage consumer grasps the cup holder and cup when consuming products from the cup.
