    'Thai' style coconut of the type usually sold in stores; a hole is knocked into the top of the coconut and the coconut water is drunk with a straw. This mug keeps the 'top' of the coconut intact as a lid that can be inverted to use as a reservoir for a shot of run or a flaming sugar cube; it is notched to allow the use of a straw. The mug is off-white in color with a thin brown wash to pick out the details and the Tonga Hut imprinted on the side of the mug.
