We use Florida Water for my kids softball team but some parents are concerned about their kids allergies. Does anyone know what else we can put in the ice water to help cool them down?

Florida water isn't babying. Worrying about allergies by using Florida water is babying.

I have ten bottles of it and use it all the time and it works much better than plain ice water.

OP some put rubbing alcohol in lieu of Florida water. Works well.

What are these allergies?

What could Florida water have in it that they are allergic to

I'm drinking Florida tap right now. People down here are pussies that cycle everywhere they go and I'm not impressed.

It just smells, while I think it is dumb to worry about it, why not just have two coolers. One for regular kids, one for babied goofballs.

Make drink water out of the hose, like all of us did when we were kids.

Also, tell the kids to stop painting their entire faces with eye black. One stripe under each eye is ok.

All it is alcohol with perfume. Use plain alchohol or the green one, it smells a little better.

Strychnine. With parents like you, you'd be doing the world a favor.

I do know what I'm talking about. But since you're so manly you can suck on my hosepipe anytime you want.

Actually, I have never heard of that. Thanks for the lesson. From what I read, It says you get if from drinking from pools , recreational water parks, lakes and streams.

No mention of water hose.

I might just stop putting it out all together. Use small chest for my daughter. I never knew people would be allergic to it. We use it all the time at the golf course and have used it for the last 3 years in softball.
