A straw bottle that closes tight – water within reach of the blanket, sealed when it lies on the bed.
Heat makes you sweat, and the bottle has to be where the heat is – which, with a sauna blanket, means on the bed or the sofa beside an electrical controller. That is the argument for a bottle that closes. This 24 fl oz (710 ml) Hydro Flask has a straw cap that flips open and shut with one hand and is leakproof when closed, according to the maker. The straw means you can drink half lying down, without tipping the bottle.
The body is double-wall vacuum-insulated stainless steel, and the maker says drinks stay cold for up to 24 hours. The listing gives two different answers on cleaning – dishwasher safe in one place, hand wash only in another – so washing it by hand is the safe choice.
Tip: Click the cap shut every time you put the bottle down next to the blanket – an open drink and a mains-powered controller do not belong on the same bed.
