DRINK BOTTLE

A drink bottle (10) comprising a container (12) for containing a liquid and a removable lid (11). The lid (11) being removably connected to an open end of the container (12). A resiliently flexible drinking spout or straw assembly (14) being mounted in the lid (11) for extraction of liquid from within the container. An actuator (26) for actuating a function of the drink bottle (10), being slidably mounted to the lid for sliding movement between a home position and an actuation position. The actuator (26) having a push face (27) accessible from outside the lid (11) for receiving finger pressure for displacing the actuator (26) from the home position toward the actuation position for performing a function of the drink bottle (10). The actuator (26) having a bearing surface (35) in bearing engagement with the spout or straw assembly (14) such that movement of the actuator (26) from the home position towards the actuation position resiliently deforms the spout or straw assembly (14) and by the resilient deformation the actuator (26) is biased towards the home position.
