ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A novel beverage dispensing apparatus and process for use by a consumer in a grocery store to fill recyclable con- tainers with beverages, such as soft drinks. The apparatus includes a retraction assembly which comprises a yoke configured to engage a bottle for retracting the neck of the bottle into a dispensing chamber where the opening of the bottle is sealed in fluid communication with a beverage dispensing nozzle. The beverage dispensing nozzle is configured with three ports - a syrup port, a carbonated water port and a relief port. Through the syrup port, a syrup may be introduced into the center of the bottle. The carbonated water port is configured such carbonated water may be directed through onto a side wall of the bottle. The relief port is positioned concentrically about the syrup port and between the syrup port and the carbonated water port and provides a port through which the fluid being displaced by the beverage entering the container may exit the container. A liquid detector is located in fluid communication with the relief port and monitors the flow of fluid being displaced by the beverage entering the bottle to thereby determine when the bottle is full of beverage.
