Perhaps a side mounted water bottle cage.



You don't have to have clearance above the bottle to pull out the bottle; it comes out sideways.

Lots of people use these on tandems where the lateral tube limits space.

There are also cheaper side mounted carriers out there, but the Arundel one is nice.
