Bongs are a great fix for your marijuana intake. They provide a much smoother smoking experience with as large hits as you can take, unlike joints. Bongs come in many different shapes and sizes these days. Before we get into much detail, let’s get this one thing out. Bongwater is hazardous after you consume your marijuana through it. The dangers of bong water are real, and one should avoid drinking it at all.
We put water in a bong to filter the toxins and some other hazardous chemicals that are there because of the combustion of Cannabis. Water also serves as a great smoothening agent in a bong. It makes your entire smoking experience smooth and comfortable. Normal room temperature water is what most people use in their bong. But we are seeing a fast-rising trend of replacing the bong water with other alternatives. Let’s get to know more about these exciting alternatives.
1. Ice-Cold Water
When we say ice-cold for something, it doesn’t necessarily have to have actual ice in there. But for a bong, you can add as many ice cubes as you like to make it really ice-cold. You will get an entirely different experience with the ice-water as an alternative to room-temperature water. Ice will cool down the smoke and make it smoother than before. So, you will be able to take longer hits and get to enjoy your bud a little more.
2. Hot Tea
First of all, this alternative is not for acrylic bongs. You can try hot tea with ceramic bongs or your regular, old-school glass bong. What hot tea does is somewhat similar to ice water in smoothening the smoking experience. You will be surprised at how smooth hits you can take with hot tea in your bong. The undertones of tea flavour with the refreshing aroma will really enhance your bong experience. You can also try some flavoured tea like cardamom tea or any other flavour you like.
3. Gatorade with Ice
Most people who purchase bongs from our shop tell us this is their favourite alternative to regular water. Along with all the toxins’ filtering, iced Gatorade also makes your smoking experience smoother. Since it has lots of sugar and glucose, it will fill your bong experience full of sweet flavours. Add ice to it, and you will be able to take the longest puff you were longing for. But make sure that you clean your bong well because it can get sticky after using Gatorade.
4. Juices and Fruit Flavourings
There are two ways to add more fruity fun to your bong. You can directly add the packaged juice like cranberry juice, apple juice, orange juice, or mango nectar. The other way is to use fruit flavouring. Both the methods will give you the same refreshing, smooth, and much more enhanced experience than using normal water in the bong. Since these juices also contain sugar, don’t forget to clean your bong afterward.
Final Thoughts
Bong enthusiasts are often after cheap bongs and smoking accessories. We recommend all our bong users experiment with other types of bongs like regular herb bongs, silicone bongs, and metal bongs, along with different alternatives to their bong water. Sometimes, smoking from the same old bong can make things quite dull and affect your overall high experience.
