Description

Beverage cup

Technical Field

The present invention relates to a beverage cup, and more particularly to a disposable beverage cup suitable for drinking a beverage containing solid food.

Background

In order to respond to environmental protection, consumers begin to change drinking habits and gradually reduce the use of disposable straws to reduce the harm of garbage generated by the disposable straws to the environment, and the common practice is to change the use of reusable straws or change the direct drinking of drinks; however, the reusable straw is inconvenient to use outside, and the straw is in a shape of a long and thin tube, so that consumers are not easy to clean, the receptivity of the consumers to the reusable straw is low, most consumers can directly drink the straw through mouth, and therefore the cup carried outside a beverage shop is gradually changed into a disposable beverage cup suitable for drinking through mouth.

In order to increase the taste of the beverage, solid foods such as rice flour balls, vermicelli, taro balls, sago puddings and the like are often added into the beverage, so that when a consumer uses a straw to drink the beverage, the solid foods can be sucked into the mouth together to increase the flavor of the beverage; however, most of the solid food added to the beverage sinks to the bottom of the cup, and if the beverage is drunk in the mouth without using a straw, the solid food is not easy to move to the mouth of the cup when the cup body is inclined, and a consumer can enter the mouth together with the beverage, so that when the beverage added with the solid food is drunk in the mouth, most of the solid food still remains on the bottom of the cup after the beverage is drunk, and tableware is needed to be used for assisting in digging and eating, so that the flavor and the taste of the solid food and the beverage which are eaten together are reduced, and the structure of the existing beverage cup is not suitable for drinking the beverage added with the solid food in the mouth and needs to be improved.
