A very big bottle, with a label saying, "this is not lemonade or orange juice".

Since urine contain urea which is an organic coumpound containing nitrogen, I guess it make a good fertiliser.

By the way, did you know that some farmers in India, use Coke as a pesticide?

It was a cottage industry in the UK, and probably elsewhere, to sell urine to the woolen industry, and to saltpetre and alum works.

Urea is one of the main ingredients of many fertilizers, including miracle grow.

Although slightly gross, storing urine can also greatly reduce water usage. Unlike fecal matter, there's no need to dilute it with a full flush every time. Waterless urinals are becoming popular for that reason.
