Why is it important to drink water in summer?
Drinking water is vital, especially during the summer when the heat can make us sweat more than usual. We have been breaking temperature records for a few years now and we need to take care of ourselves.
Our body depends on water to regulate its temperature, transport nutrients and maintain all functions in optimal condition. In other words, if we don't drink, the machinery stops working.
Dehydration can lead to problems such as fatigue, dizziness and headaches; and there is nothing worse than going on vacation and not being able to enjoy it. In addition, drinking enough water improves our energy, aids digestion and keeps our skin healthy.
That's why it's so important to keep the water in the bottle cool in the summer, because not only does it make it more pleasant to drink, but it can also encourage us to drink more.
Tips for keeping your water cool in summer
To help you keep it at the best temperature for as long as possible, we have prepared some tips that will be very useful in these months. Let's get to know them.
Choose the right bottle
First things first: you need a bottle that will do most of the work. Cool Bottles' triple-layer stainless steel bottles are perfect for this. Not only do they keep water cold for up to 36 hours, but they also come in cool designs to suit every personality.
Store cold water in the fridge
This tip is simple but effective. You always have to refill the bottle with water that is already cold. The reason is none other than that when talking about systems that conserve the temperature, these will do so both to prevent heat loss, and to lower degrees. Therefore, putting it in the refrigerator will not help to lower its temperature immediately.
Do it at the last minute
To increase the time your water will stay cold, it's important to fill your bottle with water fresh from the fridge just before you leave the house. Although Cool bottles are designed to maintain temperature for hours, starting with ice cold water ensures that it stays cooler for longer while you're out and about.
Use a tumbler for added versatility.
The Cool Bottles tumblers are not just for hot coffee. tumblers aren't just for hot coffee. They're also perfect for keeping water cold. Thanks to their airtight design, size and thermal insulation, they're ideal for conveniently carrying your drink anywhere.
Use a thermal sleeve
A thermal sleeve is a great accessory for keeping your water bottle cool in the summer. It adds an extra layer of insulation, protecting your drink from the outside heat. There are many on the market, just choose the one you like best.
Avoid leaving the bottle exposed to the sun
Do not leave your bottle in direct sunlight. Keep it in the shade or in your backpack whenever possible to prevent the outside heat from affecting the temperature of the water inside.
Add frozen fruit
Add a fun and healthy twist to your water by adding frozen fruit. Not only will they keep your water cool, but they'll also add a slight hint of flavor. Try lemon wedges, strawberries or raspberries - kids love them. It's like a soft drink, but healthy.
Use a stainless steel bottle to keep the water cold.
Stainless steel bottles are better at keeping water cold than plastic or glass bottles. Cool Bottles bottles are made with 18/8 stainless steel, ensuring that the water stays cold longer and without transferring off-flavors.
Put the empty bottle in the freezer
Another little trick that works very well is to put the bottle in the freezer for a while, so that it breaks its ambient temperature (which is likely to be high). Then fill it with ice-cold water and it's ready to go, with extra freshness.
Consider other innovative methods
In addition to bottles and tumblers, there are other methods that can complement their use. Use frozen gel packs around your bottle or a portable cooler if you're on a hike or at the beach - the options are endless!
