Abstract

The present invention relates to a blister pack sealed to the neck of a container and adapted to fit under the container lid forming a seal, said blister pack containing a liquid soluble material such as dissolvable aspirin. When force is applied to the blister pack, the base, which is comprised of a rupturable material, breaks and allows the liquid soluble material to be mixed with the liquid in the container. The blister pack remains as a seal for the container until it is desired that the user remove the blister pack for access to the container. The user can then re-seal the container using the container lid.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to a blister pack, particularly for use with food and beverage containers.BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION[0002]Sealing methods for food and beverage containers are well known and varied, the most common being a cap or lid. Drinks which include another component or second component, such as a tablet or powder which is added to the liquid are growing in popularity. Usually this includes a blister pack contained in the lid which is adapted to store material separately from the liquid in the container.[0003]It is preferable for the second component to be added immediately prior to consumption, especially when ingredients to be added are UV sensitive or do not have a long shelf life when mixed. Adding ingredients at the point of consumption also simplifies the production and filling of the beverages.[0004]It is therefore known for a container to include a cap and powder or tablet holder, or blister pack, so that when pressure is exerted on t...
