I've never had issues with anything other than a double canteen and iodine tablets. Sometimes I'll throw a can of Arizona in a 3x mag pouch on my backpack for the longer trips.

If you bring a coffee filter, noodles and dried veggies/jerky you can filter+boil freshwater and make broth to drink for meals. A 2 qt saucepan is a bit of a bother but it feeds you and your buddies and helps cut down on the pottable water you consume. Bonus points if you or your buddies know how to forage for herbs to throw in the stew.
