Insulated bottles to start with. Fill one 1/2 full other to 3/4 and in freezer overnight or earlier when I ride my Midnight Madness 100 milers. When heading out in goes the ice cubes to top then cold refrigerated water and I put them into Bottle Cozies my wife made from thick socks. SW FL here and ice still around 2 - 3 hours.

On many rides I put Heineken 0.0 with cubes in one of the 1/2 frozen bottles and in 2nd bottle some lemon slices cut in 1/4 to eat as a treat when water is almost gone. Waiting for BUD ZERO to show up.
