The body includes a chamber, a panel, a base valve, a wall drain, a primary hose, a flow control unit, a power unit and a dispenser gun. The chamber includes multiple cylinders, multiple pressure compartments and a basin configured to collect water from condensation and melted ice. The axle further includes multiple wheels, a rod and multiple bearings connected to the rod and to the multiple wheels. The handle is configured to facilitate engagement of the beverage dispensing cooler with a hand of a user.

A beverage dispensing apparatus is adapted to mix together a concentrate fluid with a base fluid. In certain implementations, the apparatus includes a cool fluid trunk line carrying the base fluid, a manifold, an in line and an out line extending between the cool fluid trunk and the manifold, a python and a bar gun assembly fluidly connected to the downstream side of the manifold by a plurality of conduits contained in the python, the apparatus including a recirculation channel having an inlet port and an outlet port, wherein the inlet and outlet ports of the recirculation channel are fluidly connected to respective in and out conduits in the python, the said in and out conduits being fluidly connected respectively to the in line and the out line of the cool fluid trunk line via the manifold. The beverage dispensing apparatus may further include a plurality of product lines, a mixing device, and a dispensing outlet, wherein at least one of the product lines is fluidly connected to a source of concentrate and at least one of the product lines is fluidly connected to a source of base fluid.

Disclosed is a holster for a bar gun. The holster includes a detachable drip cup that is removable from the holster while the holster is installed to a support structure and while the bar gun is stowed in the holster. The holster is mounted to an underside of the support structure, e.g. a bar top, and further includes a first contact surface configured to be vertical and contact the front side of the support structure and a second contact surface configured to be horizontal and contact the underside of the support structure. The holster further includes an a bar gun receiving surface defining an aperture to receive the bar gun. The bar gun receiving surface includes a portion which is flush with the top surface of the support structure, when the holster is mounted to the support structure.

A soda gun holster assembly having a holster housing with a mounting bracket operably configured to selectively couple with a countertop and a sidewall that defines a soda gun storage zone where a liquid dispensing gun can be inserted therein from the front of the holster housing. The holster housing includes a flexible U-shaped clip disposed within the soda gun storage zone that is operably configured to receive and retain the soda gun, namely the nozzle portion of the soda gun, therein. The soda gun holster assembly may also include a liquid capturing basin selectively removably coupled to the holster housing for retaining and directing errant and/or dripped liquid from the soda gun to another area.

A system and method of using an O-ring retaining apparatus to maintain an O-ring in the same position relative to the position of the handle of a bar gun while permitting a valve stem in physical contact with the O-ring to slide past without the O-ring becoming dislodged.

Beverage composition and methods for preparing beverages are disclosed. In one embodiment, an alcohol-based syrup is provided. The alcohol-based syrup is combinable with water to form a beverage that replicates an alcoholic cocktail. The syrup is dispensed in selected proportions with water through a typical soda gun or soda machine to achieve consistent drink quality. A large quantity of syrup can be easily dispensed to produce a significant number of consistent and high quality alcoholic beverages. Alcoholic beverages are dispensed in a speedy fashion allowing restaurants and other beverage-serving establishments to provide quality beverages to many customers in a quick and consistent fashion. The syrup is easily stored and transported to ensure longer shelf life than traditional cocktail ingredients. In other embodiments, the alcohol-based syrups are storable in portable pouches allowing consumers to conveniently and safely transport the alcohol-based syrups and combine them with water to form high quality beverages.
