Maybe you don't have the appetite to guzzle over 300mL of coke in one sitting, but anything you don't drink soon will slowly become flat and unappetizing. The iCan Twist-Top is an inventive redesign of the common aluminum can that allows you to reseal its contents completely.
A vented neck valve, a threaded mouthpiece and a tongue and groove seal allow you to easily close your soft drink or your beer, store it in the fridge and even carry it with you without any risk of spilling it. Rocky Bettis and Brian Bettis' idea is a practical one in other respects too: the iCan Twist-Top would simply be an alternative lid to the current common can design, and with hardly more material used, the cap could be manufactured in existing facilities for a similar cost!
