ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Box wine

Okay kiddo! So, you know how sometimes mommy and daddy like to drink wine? Well, sometimes they choose to drink something called "box wine" instead of regular bottled wine.

Box wine is just like regular wine, but it comes in a special bag inside a box instead of a glass bottle. This bag is called a "Bladder" and it can hold anywhere from 1.5 liters to 5 liters of wine.

Now, the cool thing about box wine is that it stays fresh for a really long time. That's because the bag inside the box has a special valve that lets the wine come out when you want to drink it, but it also keeps air from getting inside and spoiling the wine.

So, even after mommy and daddy open the box and start drinking the wine, the rest of it can stay fresh for weeks or even months. Plus, it's much easier to carry around a big box of wine for parties or picnics than lots of heavy glass bottles.

That's pretty much all there is to know about box wine, little one. Pretty cool, huh?
