What was the "cup of salvation" (Psalm 116:13)?

Psalm 116:12 What shall I render to the Lord
for all his benefits to me?
13 I will lift up the cup of salvation
and call on the name of the Lord,
14 I will pay my vows to the Lord
in the presence of all his people.

In my opinion, the verse is referring to a drink offering presented in thanks to God, similar to that referenced in a passage such as Numbers 15:5-6, where it was commanded to be part of a thank-offering to God following Israel's safe possession of Canaan.
