Stainless Steel Bottles Are For More Than Just Water
By
I wanted to share one of my favorite things to fill my stainless steel water bottles with. I have to admit I have found the transition to stainless steel water bottles a little bit hard at times. I do not enjoy plain water but prefer it to have some flavor, which is normally found in convenient plastic bottles. I must say the best thing for me to fill my stainless steel water bottle with has been Crystal Light.
Crystal Light is a powder which is added to water in order to make a calorie free beverage. Crystal Light comes in a large packet that can fill a jug, and then you can fill your bottle with it as needed. They also have singles that you can use to make individual portions but that’s more unnecessary packaging. Buy in bulk whenever possible.
One of the best aspects of using Crystal Light is the variety of flavors it comes in: Cherry Pomegranate, LiveActive Raspberry Peach, LiveActive Mixed Berry, Green Tea Honey Lemon, Pink Lemonade, Peach Iced Tea, Strawberry Kiwi, Lemon Lime, Tangerine Grapefruit, Raspberry Ice and Strawberry Orange Banana. The LiveActive varieties contain “3g of prebiotic inulin fibre per 500 mL serving”. Don’t forget that the box it comes in can be recycled and it is a lot less waste than the average case of plastic bottled water.
Another mark for the plus column is that you can filter the water yourself, so that you know the quality of the water used in your beverage. By switching over to stainless steel water bottles, you are reducing your ecological footprint, and thus making a change that helps the environment.
In the end Crystal Light is a great option as way to get your daily water intake without getting bored and remaining eco-friendly. If plain water isn’t your thing, no need to feel the stainless steel bottle is not for you – it’s not just for water anymore.

I wouldn’t drink too much Crystal Light. My experience was not too good with the aspartame in them…http://shaneshirleysmith.blogspot.com/2009/02/us-government-fails-to-protect-its.html
