1. A beverage container for storing and dispensing a beverage, the beverage container comprising: an outer housing, said outer housing comprising a continuous outer wall forming a cavity, a first end of the cavity formed as an opening;a discharge nozzle in the outer housing and located at a second end of the cavity;a mixing nozzle positioned in the outer housing and adapted to mix the beverage for consumption, the mixing nozzle in fluid communication with the discharge nozzle;two or more beverage storage chambers located in the outer housing, each beverage storage chamber containing a beverage;a discharge outlet formed in each beverage storage chamber to provide an outlet for the beverage contained therein, the discharge outlet in fluid communication with the discharge nozzle;plunger means adapted for manual operation to discharge beverage from each beverage storage chamber through each discharge outlet and the discharge nozzle, the plunger means comprising a separate plunger arrangement for each of the two or more beverage storage chambers, the separate plunger arrangements inter-engaged by being formed integrally with or engaged with a rigid support structure for simultaneous operation, the rigid support structure formed as a rigid cup locatable through the opening and slidable relative thereto for simultaneous operation;each separate plunger arrangement comprising an elongate shaft member and a corresponding sliding wall or divider mounted in a respective beverage storage chamber, each elongate shaft member alignable with the corresponding wall or divider, the shaft member adapted to engage the corresponding sliding wall or divider on depression of the plunger arrangement;an anterior seal on the discharge outlet of each of the two or more beverage storage chambers, the anterior seal adapted for rupture as the plunger arrangement is depressed;a posterior seal sealing a rear of each of the two or more beverage storage chambers, the posterior seal positioned between the elongate shaft and corresponding wall or divider, the posterior seal adapted for rupture by a respective elongate shaft on initiation of manual depression of the plunger arrangement, thereby allowing an end of the elongate shaft to engage the sliding wall or divider to form a plunger to discharge the beverage from the corresponding beverage storage chamber;guide means to guide the relative movement of the housing and the plunger means, the guide means comprising one or more of tracks, rails, and tabs; andpositioning means for relative movement between the outer housing and the rigid cup to provide a first travel position, a second initiation position and a third discharged position, wherein movement between the first travel portion and the second initiation position requires rotation of the cup relative to the housing and partial depression of the cup and movement to the third discharged position requires full depression of the cup;wherein:the beverage container is dimensioned to be portable, hand-held and is adapted for operation by direct manual depression of the plunger means. 2. The beverage container of claim 1 including three tubular beverage storage chambers fixed in abutting contact relative to each other. 3. The beverage container of claim 1 including three beverage storage chambers wherein each of the three beverage storage chambers is formed substantially as a third of a circle in cross section, providing a substantially cylindrical shape when the three beverage storage chambers are aligned for use. 4. The beverage container of claim 1 including restraint means for fixing the beverage storage chambers in position relative to each other. 5. The beverage container of claim 4 wherein the restraint means is one or more sleeves adapted to encircle the beverage storage chambers and fix them in position relative to each other. 6. The beverage container of claim 4 wherein the restraint means comprises one or more of a clip arrangement, a channel or lug and rail arrangement, and an adhesive to fix the storage chambers in position. 7. The beverage container of claim 1 wherein the mixing nozzle includes two or more spaced recesses each adapted to receive a corresponding outlet nozzle from a beverage storage chamber. 8. The beverage container of claim 5 further comprising severing means for severing the one or more sleeves holding the beverage storage chambers in relative position. 9. The beverage container of claim 1 including two or three beverage storage chambers fixed in relative position each to the other, in a longitudinally abutting arrangement and having a sleeve encircling the beverage storage chambers to fix them in position relative to each other. 10. The beverage storage chamber of claim 1 wherein the third discharged position locks the plunger arrangement to the housing of the beverage container and resists reuse. 11. The beverage container of claim 1 further comprising a secondary conduit for each of the two or more beverage storage chambers, the secondary conduit terminating in a beveled and/or shaped edge adapted to rupture the anterior seal, and wherein the second conduit fully occupies the outlet nozzle after the anterior seal is ruptured. 12. The beverage container of claim 1 wherein each divider or wall includes an extension section adapted to fully occupy a corresponding secondary conduit to discharge all fluid from the corresponding beverage storage chamber. 13. The beverage container of claim 1 wherein the beverage is one or more of alcohol, another ingestible liquid and a medication.
