Elderly parents

Sip cup

I'm looking for sip cups for an elderly parent. One for tipping back, eg for soup, and one for drinking through a straw. Max volume 200ml, one or no handles.

But need to not look like a disabled living aid. Can look like the sort of bottle or cup that you might take to the office.

Any ideas?

*sorry, just saw your max volume requirement

Those links don't work for me, but nonetheless thanks! It hadn't occurred to me to look at 'conventional' bottles and now I've found small bottles and cups suitable for the cold drinks with straws. Maybe my parents will concede to use ones that look like what they are, for warm drinks at least.

Check out the SHO range, they do a mug with a handle that would be great for soup, it has a sippy lid that would work for smooth soup as well.

They also do options with straws.

When my MiL was still alive we used travel mugs for her, she didn't like cold tea and had shaky hands so it helped in 2 ways, kept her drinks hot for longer and less likely to spill when she picked up the mug
