The cupholder apparatus removably receives a cup of liquid, typically beverage. The apparatus separates a user's hand from the cup, thereby providing protection from temperature extremes of the cup's liquid and the cup. The apparatus is especially effective with disposable cups and is provided in more than one embodiment. Both embodiments provide a flattened tapered ring to removably receive a cup, especially a tapered one. The first apparatus embodiment has a handle with a clip which movably extends over the cup. The clip provides spring-loaded downward pressure atop the cup, thereby providing cup retention within the ring. Button depression releases the clip from atop the cup, thereby releasing the cup for removal. The second embodiment provides a handle with orifice and a loop with orifice on the opposite ring side, an elastic band selectively disposed over a cup lid and a cup within the ring.
