One Pint Aluminium Bottles are Awesome!

PepsiCo started using these new bottles recently, One Pint bottles crafted from Aluminium, and not only is it awesome from a green standpoint (aluminium is easier to recycle than plastics), but it is cool from a weird little decor standpoint. You see, I have yet to recycle my bottles, instead I clean them out so that I can use them as water bottles around the house.

Sure, it sounds kind of odd, but these bottles are a lot more sturdy than an aluminium can, plus they have this artsy look to them. Thus far I only have a few Pepsi bottles, my Mt. Dew bottle got left back in Boise, when I moved, and it is either in storage (knocks on wood) or it got tossed. Anyhow, I plan on getting a slew of these bottles to add to my drinking glass/receptacle cabinet, since I think it is kind of cool.

Since I was a kid, back in the 70s, I have loved metal drinkware, especially aluminium, as it cools down, pretty much instantly, to the temperature of the water that you use, or whatever other drink you pour into them, and it holds temperature fairly well. In addition to that, there is something about metal cups that has this feel to it, it is the same feeling I get from stoneware, more so when we are talking about drinkware carved from stone.

Anyhow, I just felt the need to share that, maybe see what anyone else feels about it, thinks about it, or has done it.
