- Only Drink Bottled Water
When ordering water at a restaurant, you will need to specify that you only want bottled water (“agua pura”), not tap. Be sure to request that you want to drink it straight from the bottle. Some establishments will bring it to you already poured in a glass and say it’s bottled water even if it’s not. So, you can never be too careful.
This rule applies anytime you consume water, so that means brushing your teeth and any mixed drinks that include h2o.
And don’t forget about ice either. Make sure to order your margaritas and sodas “sin hielo” (without ice).
Use common sense when looking for quality water. If the restaurant is missing parts of its wall and the food is being prepared in stained Tupperware containers, chances are the water isn’t top notch either.
