A beverage container having three elongated generally planar side surfaces with three rounded or blunted side edges and three corresponding pouring apexes at the triangular mouth thereof, sealed by a removable triangular lid with a V-shaped orifice, to provide improved pouring and liquid flow characteristics. The triangular configuration of the container enables it to be tightly nested with other identical containers and also presents more planar and discrete outer surface areas for disposing advertising material thereon. The container comprises an inner and outer shell affixed together at open ends thereof.

What is claimed is: 1. A beverage container comprising: generally identically-shaped elongated outer and inner shells, each of the shells having generally triangular opposing open and closed shell ends, each of the shell ends having three apexes, each of the shells further having three contiguous generally planar side surfaces extending between the respective open and closed shell ends so as to define a generally triangular cross section therebetween and three respective side edges with two of the three side surfaces being joined together, the side edges of each shell being aligned respectively with the apexes of the shell ends thereof, the side edges of the outer shell having a blunt profile, the inner shell being fitted into, and spaced-apart from the outer shell such that the three side edges of the respective shells are aligned together, the inner shell defining a hollow interior extending between the inner shell ends for containing liquids therein, the open inner and outer shell ends being rigidly affixed together to form a triangular mouth of the container; and a lid removably and sealingly fitted upon the mouth of the container, the lid comprising a lid cover having a generally triangular circumferential edge with three apexes, the lid cover defining a V-shaped orifice thereon adjacent one of the apexes thereof for pouring the liquids in a controlled and concentrated flow therethrough. 2. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein at least one shell is fabricated from a polymer material. 3. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein at least one shell is fabricated from a metallic material. 4. The beverage container of claim 1 wherein each of the side surfaces of the outer shell is at least partially convexly curved. 5. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein the closed outer shell end is of an appropriate size so as to fit into an automotive cup holder. 6. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein graphical or advertising material is imprinted on at least one of the side surfaces of the outer shell for the purpose of advertising or promotion. 7. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein the lid further includes a slidable member disposed upon the lid cover, the slidable member being configured to selectively and slidably cover the orifice. 8. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein the lid further comprises a ridge raised upwardly from the circumferential edge of the lid cover for confining, thereby, any liquid left on the lid cover. 9. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein the the mouth of the container has a smooth inwardly beveled circumferential edge. 10. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein the outer shell is slightly tapered toward the closed outer shell end. 11. The beverage container of claim 1, wherein the inner and the outer shells define a vacuum cavity therebetween for insulation. 12. A method of advertising or promotion comprising the steps of: a) providing a beverage container comprising; generally identically-shaped elongated outer and inner shells, each of the shells having generally triangular opposing open and closed shell ends, each of the shell ends having three apexes, each of the shells further having three contiguous generally planar side surfaces extending between the respective open and closed shell ends so as to define a generally triangular cross section therebetween and three respective side edges with two of the three side surfaces being joined together, the side edges of each shell being aligned respectively with the apexes of the shell ends thereof, the side edges of the outer shell having a blunt profile, the inner shell being fitted into, and spaced-apart from the outer shell such that the three side edges of the respective shells are aligned together, the inner shell defining a hollow interior extending between the inner shell ends for containing liquids therein, the open inner and outer shell ends being rigidly affixed together to form a triangular mouth of the container, and a lid removably and sealingly fitted upon the mouth of the container, the lid comprising a lid cover having a generally triangular circumferential edge with three apexes, the lid cover defining a V-shaped orifice thereon adjacent one of the apexes thereof for pouring the liquids in a controlled and concentrated flow therethrough; and b) disposing advertising material on an outer surface of the container.
