I got the idea from a friend who tans cow skin to make certon items for every day life or for camping. See by tieing a few hides together you can make a great little sack that can be used to hold water, milk, cactus juice, and pumpkin juice. Its not half bad really.
To me it would just make sense for this to be in minecraft. Its a survival game and water is the biggest thing needed for us to live (besides air) and with this new hunger bar coming in 1.8 its needed more then ever.
Heres how to make it
Step one: throw 3 leather into the furnace to tan them. (making "tanned hide")
then make some iron
Then put the now "Tanned Hide" into a crafting bench like this.
= tanned hide
= iron
= empty
= Gold
= diamond
= Drinking Hide
A normal one will work as said in the usable liquids.
Only last for 10 refills
Covering it with gold and replacing the lid with diamond making a "Royal Drinker". This adds 4 extra sips and makes it heal a extra heart (or fills a hunger spot).
Last for 20 refills
How it works
Note:When using on a block of water it takes away 1 level. On a pumpkin or cactus the they will turn gray making it so you can't do it again on the same one. A gray pumpkin will disappear in a short time and can't be collected and the same with a cactus. (another note: if the cactus is more then one block it will be drained from all of the connected cactus's)
Right clicking on water fills the sack with drinking water that you can drink from 4 times till its empty (or 8 if its a Royal Drinker). To re fill it just re right click the water. 1 sip heals half a heart and fills 1 hunger point. (if its a royal version it heals 1 and ahalf hearts and 2 hunger points)
Right clicking a cactus gives cactus juice and works the same as water but when drunk makes the world like how the nether portal does but its not purple and it only last for 30 seconds after drinking. It does not heal any health but fills half a hunger point (with the Royal Drinker it heals a heart and 1 hunger points how ever makes the effects of cactus juice last for 2 minutes).
Right clicking on a cow gives you pure milk and works like water but when drunk it gets rid of the effects of cactus juice and pumpkin juice. It heals 1 hearts and 2 hunger points. A Royal Drinker heals 2 and fills 4 hunger points.
Right clicking a pumpkin gives pumpkin potion and works like water but will turn sight purple and people who have drank pumpkin juice won't be seen by endermen for 1 minute. Does not heal and does not fill hunger points. With a Royal Drinker it does the same but Gives a 30 second power to breath under water and makes us swim faster.
I think this would work in many other ways and maybe save are lives
do you agree.

The General Idea is ok but seams too overpowerd that all you need too heal your health is water, And even then Killing pigs is still a better way to heal yourself, too make it ballanced it should only heal Half a heart
Also there are a few holes in your idea
When you collect Water Does it have to be a source block?, Also does it remove the source block?
The same with cactis and pumpkins, does it remove the block?
Also someting that this might be useful for is if you could put lava into it for practical jokes (If you wouldent be able to see what was in it, if it was in item form) maybe it would light the person on fire or so... *Manicle Laughter*

do you know a way to make it harder?
=leather
I changed it up a little and took yalls advice
I also added a "Royal Drinker" as a fun way to give gold a better use then just tracks and weak weapons
And hyperdrive picks.
Lasts a short while, but the speed is fun.
Also, I'm pretty sure these are called waterskins or something.
