This unbreakable cup uses a very strong, durable material, making it the only drinking dishware you'll ever need.

Outdoor lifestyle brand [Snow Peak's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snow-peak-3) 'Silicone Rock Glass' is made of a silicone material to give its users a long-lasting, fun experience. This versatile drinking solution doesn't use conventional materials like glass, wood or even metals. The silicone makes the glass unbreakable and flexible, eliminating any chance of breaking your glass -- so when you drop your drink, all you'll have to clean up is the liquid.

The glass is easy to clean, food-grade and perfect for the occasional whiskey and other liquors that are served [on-the-rocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rex-rock). The unbreakable cup is also perfectly safe to be used for hot beverages.
