<p>A beverage bag containing a substance from which essences can be extracted by steeping is arranged so that steeping liquid does not drip from the bag during its transport from the steeping liquid to a place of disposal. The beverage bag is arranged as a generally planar envelope (10) having at least one substantially straight side (19) and an apex (25) formed by the intersection of two envelope sides. One end of a flexible handle (15), suitably string, is attached to the bag at a location (21) that will cause the bag to hang with the apex at the lowermost point, thus facilitating rapid drainage of the steeping liquid from the bag contents. The other handle end is attached to the bag at a location (29) that will cause the bag to hang with its substantially straight side in a generally horizontal plane. Residual steeping liquid will be reabsorbed by the bag contents and the bag will then not drip during its transport to another location.</p> |
