AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention is a device designed for drinking alcohol shots. It consists of a transparent acrylic tube with a conical interior chamber, a first opening and a second opening, a grip and a stopper guide. The second opening has a O-ring and a stopper with a finger grip and a spring. The conical interior chamber has a volume between 0.5 fluid ounces and 2.0 fluid ounces and the tube is seven inches tall. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a more convenient and easy way to consume alcohol shots, allowing for precise measurement of the amount of alcohol being consumed and facilitating the sharing of shots between people.

Problems solved by technology

Hard alcohol such as vodka or tequila is often difficult to consume quickly or on it own due to its taste and high alcohol content, e.g. when consuming a “shot of alcohol.” Accordingly, while taking a shot, such alcoholic beverages are often followed by or “chased” with another beverage, namely a chaser, e.g. soda or juice, which washes down the shot, leaving the consumer without the taste of the hard alcohol and with the taste of the “chaser.” For example, a shot of whiskey is often “chased” by an easier to drink beer or soft drink.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention is a device for consuming beverages, e.g. shots of alcohol.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Hard alcohol such as vodka or tequila is often difficult to consume quickly or on it own due to its taste and high alcohol content, e.g. when consuming a “shot of alcohol.” Accordingly, while taking a shot, such alcoholic beverages are often followed by or “chased” with another beverage, namely a chaser, e.g. soda or juice, which washes down the shot, leaving the consumer without the taste of the hard alcohol and with the taste of the “chaser.” For example, a shot of whiskey is often “chased” by an easier to drink beer or soft drink. Accordingly, a device that more effectively washes down or “chases” a quantity of hard alcohol with an easier to drink beverage or “chaser” is desired.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0003]The present invention is a device for consuming beverages, e.g. shots of alcohol. The tube, cylinder or straw preferably comprises a transparent acrylic c...
