I would use bottled water, it is better to be safe than sorry. We also took a number of the ready made cartons for when we were out made life a little easier. Have a great time.

Bottled water and watch for the salt contents, some higher than others.

Also I took ssachets of SMA gold 4oz each one, so much easier. from boots i think.

Can't see what would be wrong with boiled tap water? Tenerife is not a 3rd world country?

Latest recommendations are to use hot water for making bottles, see http://www.dh.gov.uk/en/Healthcare/Maternity/Maternalandinfantnutrition/DH_4123674 here

We went to Lanzarote in January and initially I intended to take ready made milk with me until I realised how much the suitcase weighed with it in!!! Any low sodium bottled water is fine to use. Just take a travel kettle with you. I took steribottles too.

Sodium content must be less than 20mg per litre, less that 10 is preferable. sorry, forgot to add that on
