An adapter designed to sealably couple a standard baby bottle nipple and cap to a beverage bottle, such as but not limited to a plastic water bottle. The adapter includes a generally cylindrical shaped base having a passage therethrough facilitating fluid flow. The adapter further includes a sealing disc extending in a perpendicular plane from the base and is of sufficient diameter to engage with the threads of the cap. The sealing disc engages with at least a portion of the bottom of the nipple disposed within the cap to substantially inhibit leakage. The adapter further includes a lip circumferentially disposed around one end of the base that is proximate the nipple when the sealing disc is engaged with the cap.

What is claimed is: 1. A device for facilitating the mating of a threaded cap configured for the opening of a first bottle to interface with the opening of a second bottle wherein the opening of the second bottle is smaller than the opening of the first bottle, comprising: a base, said base being generally cylindrical in shape, said base having a passage extending therethrough, wherein said base is smaller in diameter that the opening of the second bottle, said base having a first end and a second end, said first end configured to be proximate the threaded cap when said device is engaged with the threaded cap, said base being configured to at least partially interface with the internal surface of the opening of the second bottle, wherein at least a portion of said base functions to sealably couple the threaded cap to the second bottle; and a disc, said disc extending from said base in a generally perpendicular manner, said disc being generally annular in shape and having a diameter greater than said base, said disc having a first surface and a second surface, said first surface of said disc configured to interface with at least a portion of the threaded cap, said disc being configured to at least substantially engage with the threads of the threaded cap. 2. The device as recited in claim 1, wherein said base includes a lip circumferentially disposed on said first end. 3. A device comprising: a nipple; a cap configured to receive a nipple, said nipple and cap operable to interface with a first bottle having an opening; and an adapter configured to interface said cap and said nipple with the opening of a second bottle, the opening of the second bottle having an opening of a different size than the opening of the first bottle, wherein said adapter is smaller in diameter than the opening of the second bottle; said adapter including a base, said base being generally cylindrical in shape, said base have a first end and a second end, wherein at least a portion of said second end of said base interfaces with an internal surface of the opening of the second bottle, said base having a passage extending therethrough for fluid flow; said adapter further including a sealing disc, said sealing disc extending from said base, said sealing disc being intermediate said first end and said second end of said base, said sealing disc operable to sealably engage said adapter with said cap; said adapter further including a lip, said lip circumferentially disposed around said first end of said base, said lip configured to engage at least a portion of said nipple; and said sealing disc including a first surface and a second surface, said first surface being configured to interface with at least a portion of the nipple. 4. The device as recited in claim 3, wherein said cap is threaded.
