A device for draining liquid from canned goods includes a compression lever pivotally connected to a base lever. The base lever includes a support surface extending between opposed ends for tabletop use. The base lever includes an end wall perpendicular to the support surface. The compression lever is pivotally coupled to the end wall. A handle is attached to the base lever at its free end, a can receiving section being defined between the handle and end wall. The device includes a piston having a perforated disk and connected to the compression lever in a ball joint/socket relationship. Therefore, a can may be positioned on the can receiving section and the compression lever and piston operated to drain liquid from the can. Multiple socket positions and pivot point configuration provide for a maximum leverage ratio while the support surface configuration allows for stable, one-handed operation of the device.
