How to drink water on Mars?
$begingroup$
There are craters filled with water on Mars as shown below. If fresh water is found, how would astronauts drink the water? Can the Apollo a spacesuit food/drink port be used to equalize the pressure in the container of water and drink it with a straw?
Going back to the ship is not an option to get hydrated.

Nobody is going to drink the water on Mars directly. It has to be filtered first.
On the Apollo spacesuits, food and drink was carried internally. The port was for emergencies only.
The moonwalkers from Apollo 13 onwards had a drink bag installed inside the suit which allowed them to drink when wearing the pressure suit on the Moon. Shepard and Mitchell were the first to use this device on the Moon.
From Apollo 15 onwards the moonwalkers also had a high energy foodstick which was located in a little bag velcroed to the suit inside the neck rim.

@Muze Just think. If water or ice is from atmospheric origin, could it contain any salt? What happens if salty water is evaporated? Is there any salty water vapor?
