Glass Bottle
A glass bottle is an item that can hold water, potions, dragon's breath, or honey.

Obtaining[edit]
Glass bottles can be obtained by crafting, drinking potions, fishing, or from witch drops.

Potions[edit]
Drinking a potion returns the empty glass bottle. Throwing a splash potion or a lingering potion does not return a glass bottle, but brewing a lingering potion gives back a glass bottle.
Mob loot[edit]
Witches have a chance of dropping 0–6 glass bottles upon death. This is increased by 3 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 0–15 glass bottles.
Cauldrons[edit]
Using a water bottle, (or, in Bedrock Edition, a potion, splash potion, or lingering potion) on a cauldron that is not yet full adds that liquid to the cauldron, leaving the player with an empty glass bottle.
Usage[edit]
Glass bottles can be filled to make water bottles, which can then be used to brew items with a brewing stand. Glass bottles are also used to hold the resulting potion.
Collecting liquids[edit]
Water[edit]
A bottle may be filled with water by holding it in the hand and using it on a water source block or a cauldron that has water in it. It can also be filled using a waterlogged block.[Java Edition only][1]
Also, a bottle may be filled by powering a dispenser containing a bottle and pointed at a water source block. This does not work with cauldrons.[2]
If filled via a water source, the water is unaffected. If filled via a cauldron, 1⁄3 of the water in the cauldron is removed. Therefore, using a cauldron to fill water bottles is inefficient, except in the Nether where it is normally the only way to fill bottles.
Potion[edit]
In Bedrock Edition, a bottle may be filled with potion by using it on a cauldron containing potion. When the bottle is filled, 1⁄3 of the cauldron's potion is removed.
Dragon's Breath[edit]
Using a glass bottle in clouds emitted when the ender dragon breathes or shoots a dragon fireball fills the bottle with dragon's breath.
Honey[edit]
If a bee nest or beehive is full, the player can use a glass bottle on the block, or may power a dispenser that contains a bottle and is pointed at the block, which empties the block and creates a honey bottle.
Trading[edit]
Expert-level cleric villagers have a 50% chance to buy 9 glass bottles for one emerald as part of their trade.[Bedrock Edition only]
Expert-level cleric villagers have a 2⁄3 chance to buy 9 glass bottles for one emerald.[Java Edition only]
