There is provided a new and useful device for use in stirring liquid within a container which container has an opening with a smaller circumference than a circumference of a body of the container. The device comprises a cylindrical rod having a first end and a second end. There is provided a coupler at the first end that is constructed so as to rotationally couple the rod to a rotation source. There is further provided a split in the rod extending longitudinally from an approximate mid-point of the rod to the second end to form mixing blades. A portion of the mixing blades proximate to the second end are constructed so as to spread apart during the rotation of the device.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A device for use in stirring liquid within a container having an opening with a smaller circumference than a circumference of a body of said container, said device comprising:a cylindrical rod having a first end and a second end and an axis extending between said first end and said second end;a shaft at said first end constructed so as to rationally couple said rod to a rotation source; anda split in at said rod extending longitudinally along said axis from an approximate mid-point of said rod to said second end to form mixing blades, wherein said rod comprises a resilient material such that a portion of each said mixing blade proximate to said mid-point are substantially parallel and located in a first position that is substantially adjacent to said axis prior to being rotated by said rotation source, said portions are located in a second spread apart position when rotating under the influence of, at least, a rotational force imparted to said shaft by said rotation source, and return to said first position upon cessation of said rotational force.
