US Patent 8657158 Selectable flavor dispenser for a beverage container

A selectable flavor dispenser comprises a base beverage container, an additive selecting and dispensing assembly, and a drinking cup. The additive selecting and dispensing assembly each comprises an additive dispensing vial, a dispensing mechanism, and a dispensing actuator. By selecting and activating a specific actuator, a user is able to dispense a desired additive into a base beverage and deliver the mixture to the drinking cup through a straw, a check valve, and a bifurcated nozzle. A vacuum breaker allows incoming air to replace the volume of the depleted base beverage.
