solo cup

Red plastic vessel

A Solo cup is a disposable plastic drinking cup, typically red, associated with American house parties, tailgates, and college drinking games like beer pong.

The brand name Solo has become generic for any similar plastic party cup: The kitchen counter was littered with red solo cups.

The cups' opacity conveniently conceals their contents.
