         35 . A method of producing a dual reservoir fluid delivery system, comprising:
 a) obtaining a first reservoir adapted to contain a first amount of liquid, said first reservoir having an first reservoir exit port adapted to allow passage of said first amount of liquid;   b) coupling a first flexible conduit having length disposed between a first end and a second end to said first reservoir exit port by said first end;   c) obtaining a second reservoir adapted to contain a second amount of liquid, said second reservoir having an second reservoir exit port adapted to allow passage of said second amount of liquid;   d) coupling a second flexible conduit having a length disposed between a first end and a second end to said second reservoir exit port by said first end; and   e) obtaining a valve having a selector body operationally engaged in a valve housing, said valve housing having a first valve inlet and a second valve inlet and a valve outlet, said selector body operational in said valve housing to provide a flow path which selectably fluidly couples said first valve inlet or said second valve inlet to said valve outlet;   f) coupling said second end of said first flexible conduit to a first valve inlet of said valve housing; and   g) coupling said second end of said second flexible conduit to a second valve inlet of said valve housing; and   h) coupling a mouthpiece to said valve outlet, said mouthpiece adapted to be received within a mouth of a user.   
     
     
         36 . The method of  claim 35 , wherein said first reservoir exit port further includes a pair of outlet elements, and wherein said second reservoir further includes a second reservoir inlet port, and further comprising:
 a) obtaining a third flexible conduit having length disposed between a first end and a second end;   b) coupling a first end of said first flexible conduit to a first one of said pair of outlet elements;   c) coupling a first end of said third flexible conduit to a second one of said pair of outlet elements; and   d) coupling a second end of said third flexible conduit to said secon eervoir inlet port.   
     
     
         37 . The method of  claim 36 , further comprising coupling a unidirectional flow valve to said third flexible conduit, said unidirectional flow valve configured to allow directional flow of said first amount of fluid from said first outlet element toward said second reservoir inlet. 
     
     
         38 . The method of  claim 37 , further comprising coupling a first reservoir input port sealable by a first reservoir closure element to said first reservoir. 
     
     
         39 . The method of  claim 38 , further comprising coupling a second reservoir input port sealable by a second reservoir closure element to said second reservoir. 
     
     
         40 . The method of  claim 39 , wherein obtaining said first reservoir and obtaining said second reservoir comprises obtaining a first flexible reservoir and obtaining a second flexible reservoir. 
     
     
         41 . The method of  claim 40 , further comprising sealably joining a first layer of flexible material and a second layer of flexible material to produce each of said first flexible reservoir and said second flexible reservoir each having an inside volume to correspondingly contain said first amount of fluid and said second amount of fluid. 
     
     
         42 . The method of  claim 41 , further comprising fastening said second flexible reservoir to said first flexible reservoir. 
     
     
         43 . The method of  claim 35 , further comprising configuring said mouthpiece as a head portion having a pressure receiving portion coupled to a fluid dispensing face which includes said fluid dispensing orifice in a normally closed condition, said pressure receiving portion resiliently deformable upon receiving sufficient pressure to open said fluid dispensing orifice. 
     
     
         44 . The method of  claim 43 , further comprising providing said fluid dispensing orifice as a slit in said fluid dispensing face having a opposed of side walls sealably engaged until sufficient pressure upon said pressure receiving portion spreads said opposed side walls a distance apart. 
     
     
         45 . The method of  claim 44 , further comprising coupling a neck portion to said head portion of said mouthpiece, said neck portion including a fluid shut off valve operable to interrupt flow of said first amount of fluid or said second amount of fluid delivered from said valve.
