Keeps water cold! suitable for sports and outdoor activities Accessories

I bought this drinking bottle on the recommendation of a friend and I was very satisfied! It keeps the water very cold even in warm weather for a long period of time. And he doesn't sweat. I really like drinking very cold water and I don't want to keep going to the fridge for a new portion. When I first got it, I filled it with 16 ounces of water and a couple of ice cubes. It stayed freezing for 8 hours or more. But I didn't like the taste of ice in the water, especially when it starts to melt. Then I tried these plastic ice cubes. They worked well, if perhaps worse than real ice cubes. And it made it easier to pour the leftover water back into the original water bottle (to go back to the fridge) when it came time to top it up with colder water. But I've found that plastic ice cubes leave an aftertaste even in "used" water. Now I just fill it up with mineral water from the fridge. It stays pretty cold for a long time. Maybe not stone cold, but still cold when I put the leftovers back in the fridge and put a new full bottle in. I top up at night before bed, when I wake up and maybe once in between. So now I always have cold water on hand. I'm very happy with it! I bought a straw lid that works very well. This makes it easy to pick up the bottle, pull out the straw, take a few sips, then close it and put it back in, all with one hand! It might not be as comfortable as swallowing, but I never have to worry about spilling. I can even take pills with it. It is also available in several sizes and in many attractive colors. I have a 20 oz which is perfect for me. It's a bit heavy if you want to take it everywhere. And I wish there was a way to attach a strap to it for easy portability. Or I'd like some kind of carrier for it. For example, I dropped it several times while getting it out of the car. Luckily it's pretty durable. There is only a scratch on the plastic cover. Also, it's impossible to tell how much water is left inside without opening it. You have to guess by weight. It would be nice if there was some sort of upholstered window. But these are small things. This is the best solution I've found so far for keeping the water warm and easily accessible for a long period of time!
