Claim 0:
1. A beverage pod having a proximal end and a distal end, the pod comprising:
a container having a rim defining an opening on the proximal end, a base on the distal end, and a sidewall between the rim and base;
a filter having an extension defining an opening on the proximal end, a base with holes adjacent to the base of the container, at least one retainer wall with slits between the base of the filter and the base of the container, and a sidewall between the extension and the base of the filter, where the extension is peelably coupled to the rim;
a beverage ingredient disposed within the filter;
a lid enclosing the beverage ingredient within the filter, and the lid adapted to be pierced to inject water into the filter; and
a beverage pathway when the lid is pierced and a gap is formed between the extension and the rim, along the holes in the base of the filter, along the slits between the distal end of the filter and the distal end of the container defining a first pathway, along a space between the sidewall of the filter and the sidewall of the container from the distal end of the filter to the proximal end of the pod defining a second pathway, and along the gap juxtaposed to the proximal end of the pod.
