Abstract
A sleeve for use with hot or cold beverage cups. The sleeve is composed of three layers. The inner layer or lining is water-absorbent. This prevents condensation from dripping onto the table. The outer layer is made of a non-woven synthetic fabric for purposes of keeping the hand dry. The inner and outer layers are adhered together with a polyethylene film, which is not visible after fabrication. The two ends of the sleeve may be glued or hot-melted together. The sleeve is extremely lightweight, thin, inexpensive, and disposable. It is also a highly effective insulator for hot drinks
