Abstract

Some examples described herein involve a system that can receive a request for a beverage transmitted by a software application. The request can indicate that a requestor of the beverage is to receive the beverage in their personal receptacle. The system can generate a digital instruction to create the beverage based on the request, where the digital instruction is configured to prevent the beverage from being dispensed in a single-use container and to cause the beverage to be provided to the requestor in the personal receptacle. The system can then output a beverage build instruction corresponding to the digital instruction. The beverage build instruction can cause an entity at a production location to create the beverage and provide the beverage to the requestor in the personal receptacle.
