S/O drinking enough water

[noodle]

What do you use at work for water? We have glasses in the kitchen at work, so I usually grab one of those. But the glasses are small, so once the glass is empty, I'm slow to refill it.

I need a bigger cup/bottle for water. What is your preference?

Also going to say that I'm picky, and prefer clear containers, since I will drink more water if I see the water in the bottle/glass.

I know I can just search Amazon, but wondering what you all prefer.

Camelbak

Hydroflask. It's insulated and amazing and has multiple mouth options.

[Jalapeñomel]

I drink seltzer water, so I am contributing to the plastic bottle situation we have right now.

We have these dinky little glasses in our kitchen at work. And one single pint glass. I have no idea where it came from, but I have never put it back in the kitchen. It belongs to me now.

I also drink a lot of La Croix.

[Bernadine]

I have this, in gray, that I got from Target.

[dancingirl21]

I have a 32oz Contigo.

[icedcoffee]

I like large straw cups. I drink more out of them for some reason.

ETA:  Easy to clean too.  I used to use a camelbak but got tired of cleaning it.

I have a lot of parameters, lol, but I finally found something that works. I wanted something that was glass, big enough at the opening that I could just wash it with a damn sponge and feel confident it was truly clean, and some kind of lid to make the pour-out area smaller.



It's a wide-mouth mason jar with a lid. It is everything I need and want it to be! I don't think it would work too well as a throw-it-in-your-purse bag, because the cap isn't SUPER tight (It does just fine for a tip-over, and I can hold it upside-down without leaks, but if something caught the lip of the lid and it jostled just so, you'd have a purse full of water).

Lifefactory glass bottle. Plastic gets grody.

[walterismydog]

If you like cold water, get an Ecovessel. My most favorite water bottle of all. I've dropped it in rivers and off cliffs and it survives everything. They have a sale starting 2/1.

Eta: triple insulated. I don't like their non insulated bottles as much.

I do too, and am so spoiled with our work kitchen. We have carbonated water and cold brew (and beer) on tap.

Another vote for the Lifefactory glass bottle.

[Lucy Honeychurch]

Large tumblers with straws.

Oh hello there, are you hiring?

[sproctopus]

I use a 32 oz Nalgene.

FastHands and icedcoffee those both look great. I like glass and wide mouth, and also prefer a straw.

They have straw lids for mason jars, too. If you search amazon for "mason jar wide mouth straw lid" you'll find a bunch of options. You can also do a regular mason jar size if you prefer -- they're usually still wide enough to clean. I just liked the larger size of the wide mouth.

24 oz Tervis, with a lid and a straw. i have probably a dozen or so, i'm currently using one i got from QuikTrip for $5. i hate drinking out of anything else.

Ditto, but mine mine has a slightly different carrying handle that I like a lot:

[blondemoment123]

I just keep refilling my tervis.

I just spent way too much time trying to find my favorite water bottle because it's the only one I've ever used that holds the fizz (all I drink is sparkling water).  I love it so much, I'm on my third one.  I finally found it but it's unavailable!!  I got mine at Walmart, but now I'm scared they don't make them anymore.  I'm about to run out and check and buy them all!

Mouth options. Hehe.

Me too, but mine is a Packers one.

My coffee mug?

I don't see a need for a different water container.

[dana2006]

I have a 32 oz nalgene bottle and a mug. I use the bottle to fill up from the water cooler, and pour into the mug throughout the day. This way I can easily track how much I drink during a day (usually two refills).

[thebuddhagouda]

Glass water bottle. I very rarely leave the house without this thing in tow, so glass lets me leave it in the car if I need to without poisoning myself in a Mississippi summer.

zulu glass water bottle

[cosmowife]

I have a Hydroflask - 40 oz. It is huge but I have found that it definitely increases the amount of water I drink. I will usually drink the same number of water bottles a day, regardless of size. So I usually fill up once in the morning, once after lunch, and once in the evening. BAM 120 ounces done. If I have a smaller bottle, I fill up on the same schedule but take in much less water.

[isabel]

I have one of those glass bottles with the silicone sleeve. I needed something to motivate me and pretty water bottle does the trick.
