## Abstract

A liquid vessel which allows a user to mount and utilize an electric vaping device as a handle. The liquid vessel includes a beverage container, a handle bridge, and a mounting hole. The beverage container holds and dispenses liquid. The handle bridge receives the electric vaping device. The handle bridge is positioned offset form a base of the beverage container and is laterally connected to the beverage container. The mounting hole traverses through the handle bridge and is positioned parallel to a central axis of the beverage container. Additionally, the mounting hole is positioned offset from the beverage container in order to provide a clearance space for the electric vaping device. A tank system of the electric vaping device is positioned within the mounting hole and a battery case of the electric vaping device is mounted to the handle bridge.
