Packet and label combination

Abstract

A packet and label combination structure for use with a beverage container that houses packets of beverage enhancing formulations on the outer surface of the label which can be placed around the body of a bottle or container of water or other liquid and transported with ease. The packets containing the beverage enhancing formulations have perforated edges linking each other allowing for easy removal of the packets from the underlying label to pour the contents of the packet into a beverage container holding water or other liquid. A significant advantage of the packet and label combination feature is that the beverage enhancing formulations are available at one's fingertips when needed to infuse water or other liquid in the bottle or container rather than carrying the packets separately along with the bottle or container.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A packet and label combination for a beverage container comprising:
 a first elongated and substantially rectangular label structure;   said label structure having a first layer and a second layer;   said first layer and said second layer bonded together to form the label structure;   a set of packet structures housed on the outside surface of said label structure evenly spaced and lying side by side;   said set of packet structures attached to each other through perforated attachment means;   said packet structures containing beverage enhancing formulations;   said label structure having a nutritional facts table, a UPC code, an ingredient list and a brand name displayed at one end of the said label structure;   said label structure having an adhesive strip on each end of the label structure; and   said label structure placed around the body of a beverage container with the said adhesive strips on each end of the said label structure brought together on one side of the body of the said beverage container to hold the said label structure around the body of the said beverage container;   
     
     
         2 . The packet and label combination of  claim 1  wherein one type of container to be used with the said packet and label combination is a beverage bottle. 
     
     
         3 . The packet and label combination of  claim 2  wherein the said beverage bottle requires rectangular indentations to fit the said packets structures containing the beverage enhancing formulations.

         5 . The packet and label combination of  claim 1  wherein the packet structures are detached from the label structure along their perforated edges. 
     
     
         6 . The packet and label combination of  claim 1  wherein the beverage formulations contained in the packet structures are liquids, solids and powders. 
     
     
         7 . The packet and label combination of  claim 1  wherein the packet structures have a top lid area that can be torn for pouring the beverage formulations in the packets into the water or other liquid in the beverage container. 
     
     
         8 . The packet and label combination of  claim 1  wherein the packet structures have the nutritional facts listed on their outer surface. 
     
     
         9 . The packet and label combination of  claim 1  wherein the label structure is constructed from flexible plastic, paper and manufactured in any size.
