Beverage container holders which typically include a single-cup beverage container holder, a dual-cup beverage container holder, a three-cup beverage container holder and a four-cup beverage container holder. The respective beverage container holders are each characterized by at least one container cup and a handle attached to the container cup, which handle is typically hollow and serrated or scalloped to facilitate non-rotatable nesting of the handles of two or more of the beverage container holders in either stored or functional configuration. The various configurations of the container cups on the handles facilitates selective positioning of the container cups of multiple nested beverage container holders, to enable an individual to carry a selected number of beverages using one hand at the nested handles. In another embodiment, a dual tray characterized by a pair of typically recessed and/or planar tray surfaces extending from a common serrated handle can be used alone to carry food, or in handle-nested combination with one or more of the beverage container holders for carrying both food and a drink or drinks using one hand.
