Jocelyn Campbell pointed out that I could wash the inside of a narrow-necked waterbottle by putting some dry rice in, a drop of soap and bit of water, and shaking it.

Success!

Thanks Jocelyn

See thread "algae in the bottom of the bottle" in the cooking/food forum for similar ideas. Didn't realize this thread was a repeat.

You're welcome, Suzy! 

Though I can't take the credit for the idea because it was from the algae in the bottom of a bottle thread - specifically Susan Monroe.
 
I just had the craziest dream. This tiny ad was in it.
