What is 'Branch Water'

[yvr girl]

Where do you get it?

[Burma Jones]

1. It's water - from a branch

Branch being another name for Creek or Stream.

[TexasProgresive]

2. from a branch(stream)

Tap water or if you prefer bottled water.

[Canadian Socialist]

3. I googled it because I had no idea either

Noun 1. branch water - pure natural water from a stream or brook; often distinguished from soda water

p.s. so it's just water that hasn't been filtrated. Watch out for the beaver fever!

6. So, um, I shouldn't be squeezing tree limbs into bourbon?

Shit, no wonder I never liked the stuff!

4. When I read your question, I thought: I have NO idea!

And then I kept on reading, and NOW I know...DU is a slice of life for me...And I'll bet it is for you as well, my dear yvr girl!

5. As in "bourbon and branch?"

The theory was that branches of a river (small streams) had fresher water because they were closer to the spring that was the source of the water, and also cleaner (especially in cow country).

I've been waiting for YEARS for someone to ask that question.

But now the branches are polluted too...

I'm glad I could bring your wait to an end.

10. Down here, a branch is a feeder into the bay or a big river or the

Gulf. Pronounced "brainch". Or "braynch".

[Redstone]

11. Or even "brayinch."

8. Redstone: see reply #6

I feel like such a dolt! Oh, well, am blond and besides that, I like Irish whiskey neat.

[Redstone]

12. No, it's OK. You can squeeze tree limbs into bourbon...

You'll have something like "bourbon and birch beer."

Yummy!

9. NEVER drink anything out of a body of water.

Giardia! Since ranchers started moving their cattle into high country none of it is safe anymore. You are absolutely correct.

My husband did not believe me, he does now.
