The Best Bottles And Flasks For Outdoor Drinking

Don’t leave home without one.

The theme of this coming summer (and every other one for the foreseeable future) will be drinking outside. Rosé in the park, for example, or Gewürztraminer in the parking lot. But in order to make that happen, you’ll need the right equipment. Outdoor drinking calls for some spill-proof insulated vessels that can keep your Negronis cold and your Riesling colder. And, ideally, these beverage containers should also look nice. So here’s everything we suggest, from ostentatiously decorated flasks and oversized growlers to wide-mouth carafes and bottles with built-in straws for uninterrupted sipping.

Staff Editor Carlo Mantuano swears by this S’well bottle (in this particular color), in part because he likes how wide the mouth is. And that feature is especially handy for when you want to keep your drink cold with some extra-large ice cubes.

A Bottle From the Future

The Best Bottles And Flasks For Outdoor Drinking image

We’ve talked about Brümate’s Winesulators before and how they’re a great way to keep a whole bottle of wine cold.

It has a built in straw. Enjoy responsibly.
