Vanilla milkshakes.
Spezi.
And no "water with a twist of lemon/slice of cucumber" goofs. Water isn't allowed.
No sugar, no proteins?
Tap water has minerals.
What is this "water" you speak of? Seriously, I almost never drink it, I'm more into sugary drinks. But in light of the question asked, my one choice would be chocolate milk.

Definitely not egg nog.
Tea. There's a lot of room for variation anyway.
I'll take the large glass of Poison. 1 glass is more than a lifetime supply.
Tea.
Milk
Milk tea
How different from water does it have to be? Just not in the title?
Because both something like sparkling water and juice are basically water.
But I already pretty much only drink sparkling water so I'll pick that one if it's allowed (if the spirit of your question is "no flat water").

Dimethylmercury
Bud light. Itβs basically alcoholic water.
Maybe truly hard seltzer since it tastes better.
My heart says unsweetened black iced tea, but after a bout of kidney stones I guess I'd have to go with an iced herbal tea. Maybe something minty.

Monster Ultra Zero. Idgaf about caffeine or aspartame or if it gives you energy or not, I just like how it tastes. Iβd love a caffeine-free version that I could drink without worrying about dosage too much, but heyβ¦ we all gotta die sometime.
DβO, and then make a living selling my piss to chemical manufacturers

How Drinking Heavy Water Could Kill You
Algae and bacteria can live with 100% heavy water and no regular water. Plant and animal cells are more complex, so too much heavy water results in sickness or death. One key issue is that heavy water disrupts mitosis, the type of cell division used to repair injuries and grow new cells. The mitotic spindles of cells containing too much heavy water simply arenβt able to equally divide a cell to form two identical new ones.
But, you have to continuously drink and eat only heavy water for several days to see an effect. Replacing 20% of regular water in cells with heavy water is survivable for humans and other mammals (although not recommended). Swapping 25% of water with heavy water causes (sometimes irreversible) sterilization. Replacing 50% of water with heavy water is lethal. Itβs not a pretty death, either. Heavy water poisoning resembles radiation poisoning or cytotoxic poisoning from chemotherapy.
