Sistema Shaker To Go Smoothie Bottle
This is my number one favorite smoothie bottle that I keep going back to time after time.
It’s also very reasonably priced, and you can get it in most Amazon stores across the world.
Here is what I love about it:
- It has a large capacity which is important to me. When you cram in loads of spinach into your smoothies, it makes the volume much larger – hence the need for a bigger smoothie bottle. The capacity is 700ml / 23.67oz / 2.96cups. Enough for a nice filling 500 calorie complete meal smoothie.
- It doesn’t leak. This is my primary concern about smoothie bottles – they have to be leak proof, because who wants to be covered in thick green slime?
- It can be easily cleaned by hand or in the dishwasher.
- It is very easy to drink from – just flip open the lid and drink.
- It doesn’t have a built in straw or any areas of the bottle that can’t be reached. Straws are a mold hazard waiting to happen. I like to be able to see and clean all areas of my smoothie bottles.
- It is long lasting and robust. I have had mine for years and they are still going strong. I now have 4 of these, 2 for me and 2 for my husband. You can get them in a range of colors like pink, blue and green.
