    "patent_abstract": "A beverage bottle includes a liquid reservoir, a spout, and a straw. The liquid reservoir defines an upper end and a lower end of the bottle. The spout is positioned at the upper end of the liquid reservoir. The straw extends from the upper end to the lower end of the liquid reservoir and includes a proximal end and a distal end. The proximal end of the straw is configured to extend through the spout and the distal end of the straw is configured to engage the lower end of the liquid reservoir. The distal end of the straw includes a resilient hinge moveable between an axial position and a bent position. The proximal end of the straw extends through the spout when the resilient hinge is in the axial position and is withdrawn into the spout when the resilient hinge is in the bent position.",
