used to keep it in a gold plated , diamond encrusted , lead crystal, faberge designed, two stroke dispenser, with two flying unicorns lovingly engraved on the side, with an angels wing , in white gold, as the stopper, signed in platinum by socrates and isaac newton, "to goldeneye, your"e the greatest". but it fell off my sprint rack and broke, so i chucked it and use a fruit shoot bottle as well. 8-)

It was unfortanate that a couple of years ago our nipper was in hospital and had his feed in small quantities in bottles supplied by the hospital. It seemed a waste to throw them away afterwards, so I took some home and washed them. 100ml and 200ml sizes, they're perfect for shorter journeys, for anything longer I either take a few or take the bottle it comes in.

I use a small Nalgene bottle (for camping) with mL markings on the side....it's easy to figure out 2%, 3%, etc... Gotta be compact if it's gonna fit in a lammy toolbox.

A buddy of mine uses an old Jagermeister bottle.
