How to Clean a Glass Water Bottle (and Keep It Fresh)

Quick answer

Rinse your glass bottle daily with warm soapy water and a bottle brush, and let it air-dry with the cap off. Once a week, deep-clean with baking soda or a splash of white vinegar. For the Bohdi Bottle, the glass and silicone sleeve are dishwasher safe; hand wash the lid.

Daily clean

  1. Remove the cap and slide off the silicone sleeve.
  2. Wash with warm water, mild soap and a bottle brush.
  3. Rinse well and air-dry upside down with the cap off.

Weekly deep clean

Add a tablespoon of baking soda (or a splash of white vinegar) with warm water, swirl, let it sit for 15 minutes, then scrub and rinse. This lifts any residue from fruit, tea or electrolyte powders.

Caring for the lid and sleeve

Hand wash the cap and its seal so it stays leakproof. The silicone sleeve can go in the dishwasher or be washed by hand — remove it occasionally so water doesn't sit underneath.

Why glass is the easiest bottle to keep clean

Glass is non-porous, so it doesn't trap odours or stains the way plastic can. And because it's clear, you can always see when it needs a wash. The Bohdi Bottle's wide mouth means a brush reaches every corner.
