A liquid dispenser for use with a disposable liquid supply container is described. The dispenser includes a support for holding the container in an elevated position above a sliding closure mechanism for regulating gravity flow of liquid from the dispenser and substantially sealing the liquid from the ambient air. A connector tube has a passage extending from an opening end through the sliding closure mechanism to a discharge end to permit the gravity flow of liquid from the container and out the discharge end. The sliding closure mechanism includes a slidable clamping member adapted to clamp a portion of the passage in a closed position to prevent the flow of liquid from the dispenser and to disengage the portion of the passage in an open position to permit the flow of liquid from the dispenser. A cooling plate is provided to cool the liquid in the connector tube passage.
