ABSTRACT:
The container includes a housing with a liquid containment section, defined in part by a common wall, that holds the fluid. A movable member defines, in a first position and in conjunction with the common wall, a sealed interior chamber within which is disposed the mixable or solid composition. In a second position, the movable member is raised above the common wall thereby mixing the mixable composition and the fluid in a mixing section. The mixing section is a combination of the liquid containment section and the interior chamber. The container also includes a lid which is removably attachable to the housing and is operatively associated with the movable member such that when the lid is removed, the movable member is enabled to move from the first position to the second position. The container also includes a port for dispensing the resultant fluid derived from mixing the mixable composition and the fluid. The port is defined by the hollow body, movable member which has an open top and an open bottom. The method for storing, mixing and dispensing includes the steps of providing a movable member that isolates the mixable composition, containing the fluid about a portion of the movable member which isolates that composition, and substantially concurrently moving the member, exposing the mixable composition to the fluid and exposing the resultant fluid to the ambient environment.
