ABSTRACT:
An improved cap and straw assembly for use with a water bottle or the like, wherein a bottle cap of the type having a poppet valve is equipped with a drinking straw for facilitated dispensing or drinking of a beverage from the bottle. The poppet valve includes a valve member adapted for movement to a position defining an open outlet port through which the bottle contents can be dispensed. The drinking straw has an upper end carried by the cap in surrounding relation to the outlet port, and a lower end terminating within the bottle near a bottle wall thereof. When the valve member is open, the straw permits the beverage to be sucked through the straw and poppet valve, thereby permitting beverage dispensing without requiring bottle inversion.
