Dual compartment beverage container

A system for containing a plurality of constituents, including:

• a container having a container wall shaped to provide a compartment for containing a first constituent, said container wall including an outside wall section determining an outer periphery of the container;
• said container wall further including an inside wall section spaced apart inwardly from the outside wall section and defining a recess separate from the compartment, having an access aperture open to an exterior of the container, and extending from the access aperture to an interior end within the container;
• and
• a cartridge removably nested within the recess, said cartridge including a second constituent and a compliant covering in surrounding relation to the second constituent whereby the second constituent substantially shapes the cartridge.

An apparatus for containing, transporting and dispensing liquids, including:

• a container having a liquid-impermeable container wall forming a compartment for liquids, said container wall including an outside wall section centered on an axis, and substantially planar first and second end wall sections orthogonal to the axis and disposed at opposite ends of the outside wall section;
• said container wall further including an inside wall section spaced apart inwardly from the outside wall section and defining a recess isolated from the compartment, open to an exterior of the container, and extended inwardly to an interior end within the container;
• and
• a port formed through the outside wall section, and a closure member adapted for a coupling with the container to close the port and releasable from said coupling to allow liquids to enter and exit the compartment through the port;
• wherein the recess is sized and shaped to contain an elongate cartridge removably axially insertable into the recess, and alternatively to contain an elongate core adapted, when axially inserted into the recess, to support the container in a dispensing position in which said port is disposed below the recess and the core.

A device for vending product combinations, including:

• a container including a liquid-impermeable wall shaped to provide a compartment for containing a liquid, said container wall including an outside wall section determining a container periphery;
• said container wall further including an inside wall section spaced apart inwardly from the outside wall section and defining a recess isolated from the compartment, having an access aperture open to an exterior of the container, and extending from the access aperture to an interior end within the container;
• an accessory product removably and frictionally contained within the recess;
• and
• a pull tab component associated with the accessory product and accessible from outside the recess to facilitate use of the pull tab component to remove the accessory product from the recess by pulling the tab component.
