Abstract: A pouring apparatus for containers having an annular channel with an open top, a bottom wall, an inner wall and an outer wall. A plurality of tubes depend from the bottom wall and define fluid passageways in communication with the annular channel. The pouring apparatus is designed for insertion into a container, with the annular channel being disposed in the neck of the container and the tubes extending outward therefrom. Alternatively, the pouring apparatus may be built into the container as an integral part thereof during manufacture of the container.
