ABSTRACT:
A carbonated drink closure and dispensing device having an upper cap portion, a lower cap portion removably and rotatably secured to the upper cap portion at one end, and removably secured to a top opening of a container at an opposing end. The lower cap portion includes an opening allowing fluid contents of the container to flow thererough, and a valve member is dimensioned and configured to cover the lower cap portion opening. An anti-rotation device is disposed on the lower cap portion and houses the valve member, wherein the rotation of the upper cap portion slides the valve member within the anti-rotation device, closing off the opening of the lower cap portion in one position, and moves away from the opening of the lower cap portion allowing fluid contents from the container to flow through the opening and through the upper cap portion.
