For the boozy mom? Scarf that doubles as a flask is pegged as the 'perfect' on-the-go Mother's Day gift

For mothers who like the odd drink, an American company is presenting the FlaskScarf as the ideal Mother's Day gift.

The fabric fashion accessory - available at Baxbo.com - contains a hidden foil bag with a mouth valve that can hold 8oz of alcohol - around a third of a bottle of wine - allowing for on-the-go boozing.

A product description for the $24.95 multi-purpose item states: 'FlaskScarf is uniquely designed for women of both fashion and function.



Multi-purpose: For mothers who like the odd tipple, one company is presenting the FlaskScarf as the ideal Mother's Day gift - It's for 'women of both fashion and function' the website states

'[It's] is everything you need to get your drink on and look good doing it. Don’t settle for just one, you deserve both!'



The neck warmer comes in various color ways and a stripy version is also available. There are no washing instructions on the website but the shrug will probably need cleaning often with spillage posing a problem.



Purchasers are instructed to 'fill the scarf bladder' with their favorite drink, 'bite the valve', and 'drink and enjoy.'

For teetotalers the FlaskScarf apparently works equally well with non-alcoholic refreshments during exercise or on the daily commute.

The FlaskScarf was the brainchild of Utah-based Shawn Baxter.

His previous ingenious inventions include the FlaskTie - a tie that allows you to secretly take alcoholic sips at work - and the PillowTie - an accessory that blows up and can be used as an office pillow.



When it comes to the FlaskScarf Mr Baxter instructs on the website: ‘Get your drink on, wear responsibly'.

Another catchphrase reads: 'Infinite style. Infinite refreshment.'
