Drinking water in Spain

We are due to fly to Spain on Saturday, and have been trying to read up on safe drinking water for babies, what’s everyone’s take on bottled water and boiling and cooling?
Any suggestions welcome 🤗

Sometimes bottled water contains sodium as it’s distilled so you just have to check the labels. If you scroll down on this link it’s quite helpful :)

Hipp do a ‘Baby Water’ in Europe which is no sodium which is what we used. But we did have to use normal bottled on the occasion where we didn’t have any

Look on the back of the bottles they usually have a picture of a baby on them meaning they’re safe! We recently went to menorca and easily found water in any shop!

thank you, did you boil the bottled water before using?

we did to begin with but then we decided there was probably no point! She was 8 months at the time so felt as she was allowed tap water at home it would probably be ok and she was absolutely fine! Hope you have a lovely time!

Hi, we used “bezoya” water which was readily available as it had very little sodium etc in it - it has a blue label with red writing. We boiled and cooled it. Have a brilliant time!

We used to live in Spain and my first one was born here. Currently on holiday here as well. Using bezoya water and it’s so delicious :)

thank you so much, do you give it baby as is or do you boil? Xx

i just give it as is. Most water is fine, and when you go out they most likely won’t have bezoya in a restaurant. Just don’t give tap water here (and don’t drink it yourself either)
