No. You just poor it on ice water and towel and rub it on your self to cool down.

No, it's not for consumption. You put in water and soak a rag in the water and wipe your face and neck with it.

No. You put ice and water in an ice chest and pour a few ounces of Florida water in it and stir. Then dip rags in it to cool off. It works tremendously and if you do anything in this heat it is a plus- no matter what the previous dickbucket says.

I'll say this. I have the privilege of hanging out at LSU football practice on occasion and they use it by the case. But I'm sure they are all nancy boys.

DO NOT put it in an extra water cooler or the first base ump may unknowingly fill his water bottle from it. After he recovers from that first sip you probably want get many close calls in your favor.

Tell the parents if their kids are that big of pussies not to use your florida water and they can do something for their own kids.

My dad always made a big bucket of water with some Florida water in it when I was playing ball growing up. I know people back home in New Orleans that don't know what it is, I just assumed that everyone did

Is Florida water the same as Dr. Tischner's mixed with ice water? Or something else?

Tell the parents to bring their own fricking water and to stop crying. And people wonder why we have so many fricking pussies and SJW's around every corner.

Mid 50's. Kids grown. Ball over. Only time I use it now is when I'm sitting on the front porch sweating while watching my wife cut the grass.

Florida Water or ammonia spirits with a little lemon juice works wonders in the heat. It has the immediate cooling effect (seems like it cools you down about 20 degrees) and then the evaporation feel on your skin lasts for minutes.

Back of the neck and the back of the knees feels the best when playing golf in 100 degree heat.
