The drinks container comprises a vessel 10 open at the top with a generally rectangular cross-section, which tapers from the top to the bottom and has a lid 12, hinged to a side wall 11. The lid 12 has projecting puncturing elements 16A and 17A, which perforate the top of a tightly sealed, semi-rigid container for a beverage such as fruit juice, when the container is placed in the vessel 10 and the lid 12 is closed. A sealing element 19 in the form of a slide valve is fitted in a slide rail construction on the top of the lid 12 so that it can slide in a rectilinear path over two openings 16, 17 to either seal or open both the openings 16, 17. The openings 16, 17 are connected to the inside of a semi- rigid container 15 in the vessel 10 by way of channels in the puncturing elements 16, 17, when the lid 12 is closed. One opening 16 is an outlet through which the liquid can be poured, and the second opening 17 is a ventilation hole. There is a recess 25 in each side wall so that a user can grip the container. <IMAGE>
