Ice Shaker NFL SS Bottle - Eagles

The Ice Shaker NFL SS Bottle - Bengals is a stainless steel insulated bottle from Ice Shaker, built to double as a protein shaker and an everyday water bottle. It sits in the NZ Supps accessories range with a 26oz capacity, enough for a full shake or a long drink of water. If you want one bottle that goes from the gym bag to the desk without a separate shaker cup taking up space, this is built around that use.

How Ice Shaker Accessories works

Double-wall vacuum insulation is what separates this from a single-wall shaker cup. Two layers of stainless steel are sealed with a vacuum gap between them, and because heat needs a medium to transfer through, that near-empty gap stops cold escaping and stops room-temperature air warming your drink. It's the same principle behind a thermos, applied to a bottle you can also mix a shake in. The Ice Shaker NFL SS Bottle - Bengals uses this build, which is why it holds temperature longer than a standard plastic shaker.

The agitator inside does the actual work of breaking up powder. Whey protein and other powders clump when they hit liquid because the outer layer of each particle wets first and traps dry powder inside it, leaving you with a gritty drink if nothing shears those clumps apart. Shaking against a moving agitator, rather than a passive ball or mesh, works powder through liquid more evenly, and a bottle that mixes cleanly gets used more often.

Why choose Ice Shaker NFL SS Bottle

The Ice Shaker NFL SS Bottle - Bengals is priced at $88.45 NZD in the NZ Supps accessories range, positioned as a one-off purchase rather than something you replace every few months. A few things separate it from a basic shaker cup:

• It's built to do two jobs in one: an insulated drink bottle and a protein shaker, so you're not carrying two separate items to the gym.
• The line comes in five NFL team designs, Bengals, Eagles, Giants, Seahawks and Steelers, so you can match the bottle to your team.
• At $88.45 NZD, the Ice Shaker NFL SS Bottle - Bengals is a single durable purchase rather than a shaker cup you'll replace within the year.

Getting the most from it

Fill the Ice Shaker NFL SS Bottle - Bengals before you leave for the gym, since a pre-chilled stainless bottle holds cold longer than one that starts at room temperature. It works for a protein shake straight after training or a creatine dose stirred through water earlier in the day, and it's worth browsing the rest of the accessories range at the same time if you're putting together training gear rather than buying pieces one at a time.
