Description

 The invention relates to methods and devices for the production of alcoholic and non-alcoholic carbonated drinks.

 It is known the production of alcoholic beverages (vodka, whiskey, gin, etc.), poured into glass bottles, when alcohol, together with flavors, is mixed with water in a predetermined percentage. To ensure sufficient tightness of the filled glass bottle, the neck of the bottle is crimped with a cork of metal foil with a soft gasket. Bottles are stored and transported in boxes in an upright position with the throat up.

 There is a known method of preparing drinks in which the vessel is filled with water, a chamber with concentrate is placed in the vessel, closed with a lid, and before use, the lid and chamber are opened, water and concentrate are mixed (FR, patent N 3305368, B 65 D 81/32, 1967) .

 A beverage preparation device is also known, comprising a bottle filled with water in which a cone-shaped bag with concentrate and a lid are located (US Patent No. 2568855, class B 65 D 1/8, 1986).

 These solutions are the closest analogues of the proposed method and device, the technical result consists in expanding technological capabilities.

The proposed solution allows you to selectively prepare from the contents of a closed bottle just before drinking one of four cocktails. one
The technical result is achieved by the fact that in the method for preparing drinks in which the vessel is filled with water, a chamber with concentrate is placed in the vessel, the lid is closed, the lid and chamber are opened, water and concentrate are mixed, an additional chamber with a concentrate of a different composition is placed in the vessel, one or both chambers with concentrates are opened before opening the lid with a needle installed in the lid and facing the inside of the bottle.

 The technical result is achieved in that a device containing a bottle of water filled with a cone-shaped bag of concentrate and a lid is provided with an additional bag of concentrate, the bags are closed and equipped with flint pieces that are attached to the widest part of the cone bags, and the lid is made in the form of a foil cork with a needle installed in it, facing the inside of the bottle.

 For the implementation of the technical result, an ordinary glass transparent bottle (1) is used (see drawing), closed with a normally shaped stopper (2) made of foil that compresses the neck of the bottle to ensure tightness. A distinctive feature of the cork is that a needle (3) is mounted in it, perpendicular to the plane of the cork (2) and facing the inside of the bottle.

 Environmentally friendly water is poured inside the bottle. In water there are two closed bags (4 and 5) filled with liquid or dry, powdery concentrates. Each bag is made of a thin, chemically resistant, non-toxic polymer film, such as polyethylene terephthalate. One bag (4) is filled with pure concentrated ethyl alcohol. The mass of the bag (4) is such that when mixed with the mass of water poured into the bottle, vodka of standard concentration is obtained. The second bag (5) is filled with liquid or dry concentrates, which, when mixed with water, create a non-alcoholic drink and also saturate the water with carbon dioxide. The mass of the bag (5) is such that when mixed with water poured into a bottle, a non-alcoholic drink is obtained that is familiar in taste and aroma.

 In shape, each bag has the form of an elongated cone, the smallest diameter of which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the neck of the bottle.

 In order to impart negative buoyancy to the pouches, to ensure the vertical position of the pouches, and to maintain the high quality of pure drinking water for a long time, pieces of flint of a natural mineral are attached to the lower, widest parts of the cone pouches. Flint forms crystalline structures in water and preserves pure water from decay during long-term storage.

 The selected form of filling the bags ensures their safety when shaking a vertically placed bottle during transport and storage.

 The method of preparing the selected drink and the operation of the proposed device in dynamics consists in sequentially performing the following actions. The closed bottle (1) is moved from the vertical position with the throat up to the horizontal position and carefully close one of the closed bags to the needle (3) for subsequent piercing of the bag with a needle.

 To obtain vodka, a bag (4) filled with alcohol is brought closer to the needle (3). To obtain a carbonated soft drink, a bag (5) filled with concentrate is brought closer to the needle (3).

 Then, the closed bottle (1) is turned with its throat down and shaken lightly until the bag is pierced with a needle. After breaking the bag, the bottle (1) returns to the vertical position with its throat up. The contents of the bag with light shaking of the bottle (1) are diluted with water in a closed bottle, and a cocktail of standard quality is formed.

 The preparedness of a cocktail for use as a result of mixing liquids is determined by the purity of sound during light strokes with a hard object on the glass of the bottle. When the dull sound of the blows becomes loud and the mixture becomes homogeneous, the mixing process can be considered complete.

 The foil stopper (2) is removed from the neck of the bottle without the use of special devices, and the cocktail is poured.

 To obtain champagne inside a closed bottle, a bag (4) and a bag (5) are pierced sequentially with a needle (3). By shaking the bottle, the contents are mixed vigorously. To temporarily maintain tightness with increasing pressure inside the bottle (1), the closed stopper (2) is pressed with a finger. The cork under pressure of the formed gases opens with cotton and the foamy contents of the bottle are poured.

 To obtain wine, as well as for champagne, both bags are pierced sequentially, but the cork opens immediately so that the contents are not aerated.

 To obtain clean drinking water, the cork from the bottle is removed and the contents poured out. In this case, if necessary, the contents of both bags can be diluted with any amount of water or juice, and pure alcohol can be used, for example, for preparing home-made vodka medical lotions and compresses.

 All of the above methods of preparing drinks are simple to perform and create the opportunity for creativity in the use of ingredients.
