Here in Italy, we do not need cupholders. We like our espresso coffee in the little ceramic cup and we drink it at the bar, straight from a nice coffee machine. Nobody here likes to carry in his car the take-away pint of tinted water that you call coffee . When we drive, we usually do not drink and the only thing I…
