ABSTRACT:
A frusto-conical beverage container, equipped with a lid, is provided with an annular shield or guard that surrounds the mouth of the cup and the lid positioned thereon. When a plurality of such containers are carried in a sack or tray, the guard prevents dislodgment of the lids and leakage of the contents of the cups which typically results from such dislodgment. The upper edge of the guard coaxially surrounds the cup mouth and the lid in spaced separation therefrom, while the lower edge of the guard resides in contact with the wall of the cup. The guard may be formed as a unitary structure with the cup or as a separate sleeve removable therefrom. The guard may be formed with a breakaway section to allow the consumer's lips access to the rim of the mouth of the cup.
