If you’re like me and always have at least two beverages on hand, you know how difficult it is to juggle all of them at once. I dedicate a large portion of my desk space to make enough room for my water, coffee, seltzer, and occasional soda. But it gets even harder when I’m on the move.

I don’t have the luxury of owning a car or having a cupholder wherever I go. And since I live in New York City, I have to keep all of my essentials on me at all times. If I’m hauling some extra materials or carrying something especially fragile, my daily coffee moves lower and lower on the priority list.

I had effectively abandoned the possibility of carrying to-go cups until we encountered this game-changing product on Instagram. Turkish brand The Vizora sells beaded purses and accessories, and their most viral product is the CofBag: a holster designed specifically to carry your drink.

The CofBag is designed to carry hot and cold beverages in a variety of sizes and comes in plenty of colors. You can find the CofBag and similar products offered by other brands on vendors like Etsy and Amazon.

I wanted to see how a coffee purse would affect me and my drinking habits, so we ordered one from Amazon with an adorable tortoiseshell chain handle and faux-leather holster.

The black and brown combo pairs with basically every outfit in my closet. The handle rests perfectly on my wrist so I can have my hands free for my phone, regular purse, or any other things I might need to hold.

I used a coffee purse for an entire day, and I can definitely see it ending up in my outfit rotation. However, I'd recommend getting the CofBag from The Vizora instead of the Amazon dupe—the viral version seems a lot sturdier than the one I bought.

Anybody else who's always on the go or always carrying a drink should consider getting a coffee purse for themselves. Any accessory that combines both form and function is a win in my book.
