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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
Water is the main component of any and every beverage

Elemental mercury.
You’ll drink this until the end of your life. Works the same with molten iron though.
always gave me a heavy feeling in the pit of my stomach.
True, but at the same time you know exactly what OP means with this question.

Speak for yourself. “Cucumber water” does not have the same “sensory qualities” as water unless taste doesn’t count as a sense.

Sure, added that note in an edit. There’s no answer here that doesn’t result in your early death.

You know what OP means. You’re being ridiculous.

They obviously wouldn’t, they’d just bring tap water or bottled water or something. What are you even talking about.
