And no “water with a twist of lemon/slice of cucumber” goofs. Water isn’t allowed.
If water isn’t allowed, what does one drink? Everything we drink has water in it.
Water is the main component of any and every beverage
Elemental mercury.
always gave me a heavy feeling in the pit of my stomach.
You’ll drink this until the end of your life. Works the same with molten iron though.
A friend had to read a paper about what people called water vs. how much water made up the substance. So like pond water has less water than tea, we call one water one tea. Truly thrilling research.
do you have a link to the paper? I want to read it
This was a very long time ago; I do not.

True, but at the same time you know exactly what OP means with this question.
I don’t think OP knows what they mean with this question. The top two ‘serious’ answers are coffee and tea, which is just “hot water with shit mixed in”. Anything you drink is water with shit mixed in. Any answer that isn’t “water with shit mixed in” means you die, either within months or minutes. Most answers that are “water with shit mixed in” would still kill you fairly quickly if that’s all you ever drank.

Sure, added that note in an edit. There’s no answer here that doesn’t result in your early death.
Dude. Yes they have some small diuretic effects but tea and coffee are overwhelmingly hydrating. It’s just not a good idea to mainline that much caffeine for heart reasons.

LMAO What a take! Thanks for the laugh.

If I ask anyone for a glass of water, they’re going to get me the same thing because they know what I mean. No one is going to get me a glass of orange juice or tea or 7up, even though that’s technically also water.
You know what OP means. You’re being ridiculous.
so then do you agree that they wouldn’t bring you lemon water or cucumber water? clearly you didn’t ask for those. but OP explicitly calls those out as ‘no goofs’. so where’s the line?
The point of OP’s question is clear. He’s referring to a drink that has sensory qualities that are clearly distinct from plain water. Water with a spritz of lemon still reads as water. As a loose guideline this is like anything you’d order as “water with x” or “x water”, like cucumber water. Coffee clearly doesn’t fit into that category, it has sensory qualities that are very different than water with x in it.
Speak for yourself. “Cucumber water” does not have the same “sensory qualities” as water unless taste doesn’t count as a sense.
I had this argument with my roommate once. It was probably the biggest argument we ever had. IMO, just because it has water in it doesn’t mean that the drink is water. Like, some people don’t like the taste of water, but that doesn’t mean that they don’t like milk, which has water in it.
For me a beverage is defined by its flavor, not its components.
cyanide. you take my water you take my life
EVERY drink is water!
- Soda is less water and some sugar mixture
- Juice is less water and some squished fruit
- Beer is less water and some cooked hops
- Tea is less water and some leaf infusion
- Coffee is less water and some roasted bean-juice
- A martini is even less water with some alcohol and old squished fruit
So DON’T TELL ME WATER ISN’T ALLOWED! Damn, this is making me irrationally angry. Maybe I need some water…
If that’s the case, I guess I’ll pick kool-aid powder.
You can either have whole milk or fresh squeezed juice. 😂
Whole milk is just water with some emulgated fat in it. Fresh squeezed juice is just water with some biomass in it.
I suppose we need to switch to sunflower oil or something. It is digestible, has no water in it, but isnt exactly healthy.
I wish you’d said beer was less water and more squished fruit
Brawndo. It’s got what I crave.
Does it suck being a vegetable?
Odourless, tasteless, colorless, uncarbonated soda pop.
👍
So, American beer?
Coffee, black. I’m a regular joe and I like my joe regular.
Apple juice with a good amount of milk.
Wait… is the milk separate or mixed with the apple juice?
mixed
Huh… I’ve never heard of that being done. I’ll have to give it a shot
when i was a kid, milk and apple juice were my two favorite drinks, so one time, i mixed them. it was a bad time.
The amount of mixture is important. If it’s proper, trust me you will like it.

OK Bear Grylls
No water allowed that essentially excludes all beverage. If i could have anything else, i’d go with at least two kilos of fruit and berries per day, preferably melon, cucumber, oranges, cherries, raspberry (any berry actually…), plume, pear, apricot. And the occasional fish.
2 kilos???
Yes if i do not have to sweat too much, else i’d probably need more.

Honeybush tea. It’s an herbal tea from South Africa that tastes like honey…
