hip flasks

Concealed liquor containers

A hip flask is a small, flat container designed to hold liquor and fit in a pocket or against the body.

The curved shape conforms to the hip or chest.

Hip flasks are associated with discreet drinking—sneaking alcohol into events or taking nips in public: He pulled a hip flask from his jacket and offered me a swig.
