"Drink this and all of Link's LIFE hearts will turn red. Red water turns blue when Link sips it. Drink the blue water and that's the last of the water."
The 2nd Potion, also known as the Red Water of Life, is a type of Potion from The Legend of Zelda. This potion is one of two types in the game, along with the Life Potion. When Link drinks from the 2nd Potion, it will restore all of Link's Hearts. Drinking the potion will also cure Link of a Jinx that is placed on him by Red Bubbles. After Link uses the 2nd Potion once, it will change into a Life Potion where it can be used a second time.
Link can purchase this potion from the many Potion Shops found throughout the Overworld. However, the Old Woman found in these Potion Shops will not speak to Link. Link must first obtain the Letter from the Old Man. After showing this letter to the Old Woman, the Potions then are available for sale.
Each Potion Shop sells a 2nd Potion for 68 Rupees and a Life Potion for 40 Rupees. Considering the 2nd Potion offers two uses of the Life Potion, it is a better deal as it comes out to 34 Rupees per use. If Link has a single Life Potion in his inventory, he can purchase a second Life Potion for 40 Rupees and this will cause the Life Potion to change into a 2nd Potion.
In other caves found throughout the Overworld, Link will encounter an Old Man who offers Link the choice to take a Heart Container or take a 2nd Potion. Considering you cannot purchase the Heart Containers anywhere, it is strongly advised that Link grab the Heart Container in all of these instances.

Tips and Tactics
"Water of Life can be a tremendous help to you. By drinking it, you can turn all white hearts to red hearts. There are two kinds of water: red and blue. When you drink red water, it turns blue and when you drink blue water, it disappears. Water is for sale, but sometimes it is also free."
