An infant beverage dispenser carries a beverage powder and a liquid in separate compartments until needed. The compartments are contained in a flexible bag and are separated by each other by a seam. The seam is rupturable due to manual squeezing of the compartment containing the liquid. Once rupture

An infant beverage dispenser carries a beverage powder and a liquid in separate compartments until needed. The compartments are contained in a flexible bag and are separated by each other by a seam. The seam is rupturable due to manual squeezing of the compartment containing the liquid. Once ruptured, the liquid mixes with powder to create the beverage. A nipple is attached to the outlet of the bag for allowing the beverage to be dispensed.
