Hi Jessica! YUM! A warm Arnold Palmer sounds perfect.

Vermont just had its first snow in the mountains (eleven inches on top of Mt Mansfield!!), and everyone’s already talking about bringing out the merino wool base layers and tuning their skis.
Personally, I can’t wait for adventures out in Bolton’s snowy backcountry woods, whether that’s in the pitch dark before work or on a dreamy Saturday afternoon.
As temperatures start to turn, we always get the question: Can I put warm liquids in my Bivos?

And we know all of you do too 😉 That’s part of why an insulated metal bottle is so great! Last winter, after Bolton got enough snow to go skiing in late November, Carina, Robby, and the rest of the crew headed up for a pre work skin and Robby surprised all of us with a Bivo full of warm cappuccino for everyone. It was the perfect treat to warm up before getting the first turns of the season.

Why? Our bottles have a very high flow rate that could lean to burns from hot water. Additionally, putting boiling hot water into our bottles with the Gravity Flow lid can lead to pressure build up inside, and when the nozzle gets opened with that much pressure, hot water could squirt up. We just don’t want all of you to get hurt!

After Lily, our new event specialist, jumped into the river on a 49 degree October day (and stayed in for like 15 minutes!) the only thing that could get her to stop shivering was a Bivo full of peppermint tea. While everyone else was enjoying their final creemees of the season, Lily was wrapped up in a blanket and sipping her tea that was still warm after she had prepared it hours before.
Thanks to Joshua W Strong for the above photo of Lily!

I put piping hot coffee in my Bivo. You just need to be mindful when you sip. Sip carefully like you do with a regular coffee cup. Don’t fill it to the top. You want about an inch of space after you fill it so you have a little more tilt to the bottle for those first few sips.

Hi Bivo! I love warm Arnold Palmers in the cold weather. That’s basically lemonade with a bit of tea. I’m very careful with my warm liquids and warm them to 150° using a thermometer.
Stay in the loop with our weekly cycling stories.
