Handlebar mounted bottle cage

Anyone recommend a handlebar bottle cage mount they've used? I've only frame space for one bottle and touring soon. Had a look in the forum archive but it's six years old and links don't work. Thanks!

An option could be to buy a water bladder in one of those small backpacks. You would want a lot of water if in the sun for few hours. I have one. Only issue might be sweating. I wore it on a cycle and you wouldn't notice it on your back.

If you're touring could you just stick one in a pannier?
