Answers:
Chances are the tap water in Mexico will contain e-coli, as well as parasites your body is not used to!. The safest way to avoid that happening, is to drink only bottled water!. Make sure however that the cap was actually sealed, so the bottle was not re-filled from the tap!. It would be safe to drink coffee, as the water is brought above the temperature of 160 degrees in the brewing process!. Drink tea at your risk!. Best to boil any water you plan to drink!. Or, like Most Americans, just drink cervesa!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you get montezuma's revenge in mexico, for drinking the water!. an egyptian version of that is called "pharaoh's revenge", an indian version is called "delhi belly", and a balinese version is called "bali belly"!. those ailments are nothing but traveler's diarrhea!. they are traveler's diarrhea!. foreigner's are not suppose to drink that native water, only the natives can drink that water, because they have an immunity for that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's a type of torture where after you have been administered Mexican water, you endure a series of days/weeks/months where your body is at one of its weak points, and where you feel ill, tired, and your body will experience some rounds of terrible stomach-aches!.
