The best bottle for both hot and cold drinks
What is the best bottle for both hot and cold drinks?
If you want one vessel for tea in the morning and water in the afternoon, the Fressko Move 500ml handles both — around 12 hours hot and 24 hours cold, with a wide enough mouth to clean out the tea before you refill it with water.
Evidence90/100; vacuum-insulated 18/8 stainless rated for both, and the removable infuser means loose leaf does not have to stay in the bottle all day.

How we decided
Every product carries one 0–100 overall score built from the same six sub-scores: seal integrity, thermal performance, cleanability, materials safety, repairability and cost per year of ownership. Category-specific weightings are published on each product page.
The Reusable Edit is independent and takes no payment for coverage. Outbound retail links are affiliate-tracked; commissions never change a score or a ranking.
Related questions
- Can you put hot tea and cold water in the same bottle?
- Yes, in a vacuum-insulated stainless bottle rated for both. Rinse with hot water and a bottle brush between uses, and remove any infuser — tea tannins in the gasket are what carry flavour across, not the steel.
- How long does an insulated bottle keep drinks hot and cold?
- Around 12 hours hot and 24 hours cold for a quality double-walled stainless bottle. Opening it frequently is what shortens both figures, not the ambient temperature.
- Is glass better than stainless for tea?
- Glass is better for taste and for watching an infusion; stainless is better if the bottle leaves a desk. Choose glass for a stationary bottle and insulated stainless for anything you carry.
