Westbound serves the Cocktail Carry On in a vintage suitcase in Los Angeles. The cocktail for six contains vodka, yuzu, thyme, sage and peat smoke.

Across America, bars and restaurants have found fun ways to present beverages in containers beyond glasses, mugs and cups. From skulls to suitcases, these creative and kooky vessels make the drinks inside more fun to sip. Whether sharing a bowl with a large group or throwing back a shot solo, these unforgettable vehicles for doing so are sure to make an impression — and be shared on social media. Forget your flask at home and click through the concoctions in the gallery above for imbibing inspiration.
