So I want to play a Drunken Master Monk. He can replenish a drunken ki point (two, with the Deep Drinker Feat) by drinking a pint of ale as a standard action. Since fights more than often become quite long at our table, I'd like to be able to reduce this time to a move action in order to quickly regenerate ki if necessary.
Is there any possibility to do this? I know there is the Fast Drinker feat, that lets you drink your ale as a swift action, but there are way too many better options to use that one swift action you have per round.
There is the Drunken Brute Barbarian archetype who does this, but Barbarians need to be lawful or they use their rage class feature, which is bad, because you can only drink as a move action, if you're raging.
There also is the "accelerated drinker trait", that lets you pop a potion in a move action. Maybe I can talk my DM into allowing it for alcoholic beverages. But I don't really like it since it meddles with the RAW.
Do you know of any possibility to chug more than one pint per round while still retaining that precious swift action?
If you can afford 16 500 gp Cayden's Cup would work.

IIRC, you can only use it once per hour, or am I mistaken?
Also, since the standard action duration is written into the class feature, is it even possible to shorten this duration by anything else than the Fast Drinker Feat?

Once per hour, yes. Still better than you'd expect, Paizo likes 1/day effects.
I'd think the cups text trumps the class features for specificity but it is possible that your GM would disagree. The other possible problem is that it's from Mythic Adventures and even though you can't use the cups mythic effect without mythic power some GMs blanket ban that book.
