ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment, a beverage dispensing container (100) includes a primary chamber (112, 114) for holding a first liquid and a fluid dispensing device (430) coupled to the primary chamber. The fluid dispensing device is adapted to provide access to the primary chamber when in a first position, and is adapted to fluidly seal the primary chamber when in a second position. The primary chamber further defines a cavity (110) adapted to receive a second container (130) therein. The second container holds a second liquid in a second chamber, and has a fluid port adapted to be opened to provide fluid access to the second chamber. A sealing mechanism (200) is adapted to fluidly seal the fluid port when the second container is disposed in the cavity. The sealing mechanism permits the removal of the second container from the cavity and the reinsertion of the second container into the cavity to fluidly reseal the open fluid port. In this manner, a second container, such as an energy drink container, can be opened and then stored in the sports fluid dispensing container of the present invention in a manner which reduces or eliminates spillage from the open second container.
