Abstract

A package for storing and dispensing pourable contents includes a container with a bottle having a neck with an opening in which there is mounted a gasket in the form of a pouring and drainback fitment. The fitment has a spout, a circumscribing well in communication with the bottle opening, and a lip supported on the neck of the bottle. A cap includes a measuring cup, the brim of which is received within the well of the fitment, when the container and cap are fastened. The threaded exterior wall of the cap is connected to the measuring cup by a web which is urged against the lip of the gasket forming drainback fitment to form a leak-proof seal when the cap is threaded onto the neck of the bottle.
