Ayurveda has advocated the benefits of drinking water from copper drinking vessels since ancient times. Ayurveda states that when you keep water in a copper bottle or cup for 8–10 hours, it has a balancing effect on the three bio-energies (doshas) that circulate through the human body (Vata: air element, Pitta: fire element, and Kapha: water element). Additionally, water in copper drinking vessels transforms into naturally alkaline water, which helps to keep your body's pH in balance.

Copper discolors over time due to natural oxidation. This is called patina. The material may also start to show some stains. These are natural properties of copper and have no negative effect on drinking from a copper object. Pure copper reacts with oxygen, water, and the residues in water, such as sulfur. In fact, it means that the object has a high copper content and works well to purify the water. Discoloration of the inside is not harmful. If the discoloration becomes too severe, you can clean the bottle, jug, water tank, or cup.
