Keeps it hot, keeps it cold. I unboxed the Solara 650 ml insulated water bottle, and it's perfect for the gym, the office, travel: basically everywhere.
How an insulated bottle works
Insulated bottles like this use two walls with a vacuum between them. Heat moves through air and contact, so taking the air out stops your tea cooling down and your ice water warming up. It also means no condensation on the outside, so it won't wet your bag.
