Abstract:
A collapsible, disposable beverage container (10) carries a rigid internal container (12) for holding hot fluid. The container (10) is made of paperboard. The entire structure (10) is formed from a single sheet of paperboard that is suitably scored, cut, bent and folded to a hex-shaped structure.

The container has a top (30) that is integral with one of the longest panels and has a central opening.
