You
may have just gotten a nice new hip flask or be considering getting one. If so,
congratulations! One common question that is asked often is whether you can
store water in hip flasks. The short answer is: yes, you can definitely put
water in your hip flask if you wish. However, did you know there are some
drinks you shouldn't put in your hip flask because it's not designed for them?
In this article, we share with you more about the types of drinks to put and
not to put in your flask.
Benefits of Putting Water in Your Hip Flask
Because
hip flasks are so compact and portable, you may be considering using one in
place of a water bottle, which can be large, bulky, and difficult to carry
around. If so, you have definitely made a smart choice. Hip flasks can be used
to store water, making it convenient for you to take a sip anytime, anywhere.
Just keep in mind that water should not be stored for prolonged periods in your
hip flask when not in use.
What Else Can You Put in Hip Flasks?
Now
that you know water is all good to go, you may be wondering whether you can
place other types of liquid in your hip flask. Besides hard liquors such as
whiskey and vodka, it’s advisable not to place anything else in your hip flask,
including:
- Acidic
drinks: As hip flasks do not have an internal plastic
coating to protect them from acidic reactions, you should never put acidic
drinks such as fruit juices in them. You can probably get away with doing
so for a short period of time, however, we would not recommend it if you
want to keep your hip flask in tiptop condition.
- Hot
drinks: There’s nothing better than a sip of hot tea
or coffee on a cold day, right? While that may be true, that sip must
never come from a hip flask. With only a one-wall design, hip flasks can
become hot and dangerous to touch when filled with hot liquid. You can
also burn your lips on the metal spout.
- Fizzy
drinks: Whether the fizzy drink in mind is alcoholic
or non-alcoholic, it’s not a good idea. Hip flasks aren’t designed to hold
pressure generated by fizzy drinks, so if you don’t want to damage your
flask prematurely, stick to whiskey and vodka.
