Keeping this in consideration, what is the best bottle for a bottle rocket?

The very best bottle to use is a 2-liter plastic pop bottle that previously held fizzy pop. This type of bottle is very good at holding the pressure that your rocket will need.

why do you have to put water in a bottle rocket? The concept behind a bottle rocket like this is that you take a bottle and fill it part-way with water and part-way with compressed air. Then the compressed air pushes the water out of a hole at one end of the bottle. First you need some way to put lots of compressed air into the bottle.

Accordingly, why does a bottle rocket fly?

The water provides the ejection mass necessary to create the force needed to launch the rocket at high speed. Typically, a water rocket uses a plastic bottle in which the pressurized air, and water, goes in. When the air pressure becomes high enough, the plastic bottle releases and flies high up into the air.
