This 3-ounce collapsible shot "glass" will hold 1.7 ounces of liquid, allowing you to take a hit of espresso in the morning, a sip of wine with lunch and a shot of Scotch any damn time you like. The stainless steel rings collapse down and fit into a small metal keychain-able case, and should you really want to hide the cup from prying, teetotal partners, it comes with its own faux-leather zip-shut case.

I want one. As a tech blogger, I come under the professional category of "journalist." This title brings with it some important responsibilities, one of which is an alcoholic habit. This is easy to stick to at home, but in these days of iPads and 3G connections, I often find myself working far from the bottom drawer of my filing cabinet and its liquid delights.

The traditional answer is a hip flask filled with whisky, but feeding my monkey will be so much more civilized with this tiny cup. And at just $16, I can afford to buy a replacement when I lose the first one in a drunken stupor.
