How to keep water bottle cold

[Ellelledee]

At the airport before flying to Orlando I bought one of those WHS versions of the Chilli bottles. Within minutes of buying it I thought “here goes one of those stupid impulse buys that I won’t use”. I LOVED my chilli in Florida! I used to take it to the park and buy bottles of water and put it in and it stayed cold. At places where you could get the cups of iced water I’d buy them and it stayed ice cold it was fab. You know how you buy a bottle of water there and after your first drink you go back to it and it’s warm? Well no this was amazing! It really helped me keep up my water intake.

Don’t wanna have to take ice packs and not sure if freezing it before hand would work for us either as we have two young kids who could want the drink before it’s melted.

I can only carry one bottle at a time.

Chillys water bottles. I left mine in the car this year, outside temps hit 104 and i still had water with the ice that i has put in that morning. Win!
There is a good thread on them too

Half fill the bottle, freeze it then top up with cold water.it will last a long time. Or get free iced water for free at many Disney food outlets

Chillys bottle is an investment you won't regret. Like others have said even when hot to the touch the water inside is cold.

Another vote for chilly bottles. Ours is a Tesco one and kept drinks cold all day. We topped it up with free ice water from the restaurants and bought the concentrate squash from Walmart - more flavours there than uk. Worked brilliantly for us and saved us a fortune buying bottles of pop or carrying enough water for the day.

Can I ask... how do the £6 Morrison's version differ from the £20 Chillys version?!

Chillys are a vacuum bottle, like an old thermos glass flask, but this is all stainless but with a vacuum, double walled with a vacuum cavity.
We have other cheaper bottles, but they dont feel as good, or keep drinks chilled as long. So we both reach for chillys, we now have 3 cups 6 bottles 500ml and my 260ml that i use for my slimfast drinks

My £6 Tesco one was left in a car that was so hot at the end of the day that I could barely touch the steering wheel or the outside of the bottle.

I needn't worry the inside was literally ice cold.

Definitely go for chilly bottles. A little more expensive than some you can get on Amazon, but top notch gear.
