To ask what water bottle you use?

I have to admit im guilty of buying a plastic water bottle, using it to death and then buying another.

but with this heat at the moment and a holiday coming up, I want a genuinely good, portable water bottle that will keep ice cold all day. My idea is to fill it with ice water in the morning and then refill through the day, hopefully with ice still in it.

At home I use a Stanley cup which keeps it cold all day, but is far too big to travel with! I’m thinking 500-750ml, and quite portable? Does anyone have any recommendations?

I use an 18oz Yeti rambler with a chug cap. Love not faffing with cleaning straws and keeps drinks cold all day. All parts are dishwasher safe.

Get one you can clean easily and preferably a brand from which you can buy new seals for the lid. Make sure to clean inside under the shoulders of the bottle and regularly remove the seal in the lead to clean out the black mould that will inevitably be growing in there.

I love my Owala. I’m in Turkey at the moment, and I’ve been filling with ice and water at the bar in the morning, then with water throughout the day, and the ice is still in tact by the evening.

My kids have SHO bottles which are great, but the neck on them is narrow and it’s difficult to get ice in, so the Owala wins for me.

I have the 710ml bottle and I don’t find it too heavy to carry in the side pouch of my backpack.

Ninja thirsti for me as it keeps fizz. I drink sparkling water so it’s perfect.
