Disclosed herein is a sealed tamper-evident container. The container comprises: a bottle having a side wall portion and an open mouth portion; a cap connected to the bottle mouth portion; a frangible label connected to the bottle side wall portion; a wrapper having an upper portion that overlies the cap and a lower portion that overlies the bottle and at least a portion of the label so that the cap is sealably fixed to the bottle; and means for securing the wrapper lower portion with the frangible label. The wrapper upper portion is removable from the container and the cap so that the cap can be separated from the container. Removal of the wrapper lower portion ruptures the frangible label; the label rupture serves as a visible indicia of the removal of the wrapper bottom portion from the bottle, and thus alerts the consumer to possible tampering.
