Abstract

A beverage dispenser for dispensing one or more fruit or vegetable beverages. The dispenser includes a housing design to hold one or more liquid containers filled with a fruit or vegetable concentrate and a fluid metering mechanism for providing the liquid concentrate from the liquid containers to a consumer. The fluid metering mechanism is a modular component which simplifies maintenance and repair of the dispenser and further reduces leakage.
