Claim 1:
2. A reconfigurable container-closure system that is able to assume a first configuration and a second configuration, wherein:
in the first configuration:
a first closure (12) forms a fluid tight seal with a first container (10);
the first container comprises a first reservoir (10e) and a first flowable product (20) is located in the first reservoir;
a second closure (112) is mounted to a second container (110);
a second reservoir (114e) is removably attached to the second closure, and a second flowable product (120) is sealed within the second reservoir, unable to mix with the first product;

in the second configuration:
the second closure (112) forms a fluid tight seal with the first container (10), the first closure (12) having been removed from the first container;
the second reservoir (114e) is attached to the first container (10); and
the second reservoir is unsealed, and the first and second products (20, 120) are free to mix.
