ABSTRACT:
A drip-free dispensing structure is provided with a body for extending from a container around an opening. The body has a crescent-shaped inner spout. An outer collar is spaced outwardly of the inner spout. A drain-back trough is defined between the inner spout and outer collar. The trough runs from a high point at the front of the structure to a low point on either side and empties into a reservoir defined at the rear of the structure. A notch in the wall of the inner spout permits the collected fluid in the reservoir to flow back into the container when the container is subsequently tilted forwardly to pour liquid from the container.
