ABSTRACT:
A mixing and dispensing apparatus has a small bottle which is positioned within a larger bottle. The small bottle contains a concentrated solution, and the larger bottle contains water. The small bottle has a nozzle that is off-center, a grip base that is an integral part of the bottle, and a vent to maintain zero atmospheric pressure internally. The small bottle is inverted and placed within the neck of the large bottle. The small bottle is then rotated so that the neck of the nozzle comes between two arms of a release mechanism which is an integral part of the large bottle. In an alternative preferred embodiment, the nozzle is centered, and is pushed through the arms of the release mechanism. Once the apparatus is ready for use, the small bottle is pulled upward using the base grip or a pull ring, thereby opening the nozzle and releasing the contents of the small bottle into the large bottle. The contents are poured out through the space between the small bottle and the neck of the large bottle, or through a separate pour spout.
