    I drink only water and red bush tea with skimmed milk. But I am a diabetic so I avoid any kind of fruit juice.

    Water, Snapple, soy milk, diet soda (on occassion), energy drinks (when working nights), juice, protein shakes, whatever I want for the most part. I go by the IIFYM mentality, so I can have them if I have room in my macros and calories for them.

    I have my decafe coffee in the morning and maybe one can of diet soda with either lunch or supper and water after that all day long!!

    Almond milk with my protein powder! the unsweetened vanilla has only 30 cals a cup and is really good just add some splenda to taste and I sometimes will add fresh grated nutmeg or the sugar free strawberry or chocolate milk maker!

    I drink black coffee on a morning, then herbal teas, green tea and water, sometimes a diet lemonade too. I eat fruit rather than drink fruit juices.

    I drink whatever I like as long as it doesn't break my calorie budget- it's just important to remember that drinks still need to be counted. A typical day for me is 2-4 cups of coffee with semi skimmed milk (morning and evening), water throughout the day, 1-2 glasses of diet cola or a beer with or around my evening meal.

    I don't like milk, but if I did I would drink it to add some protein.

    *coffee usually in the AM (~2 cups a day), sometimes i'll have a latte
    *lots and lots of water
    *on occasion (once a week?), Crystal Light or other diet drink

    I never drink fruit juices. If i have a fruit shake i count it as fruit, not "a drink".

    Water and I've just started using unsweetened 1/2 cup almond milk in my green smoothies, to replace the yogurt I had been using, but I'm not drinking it on it's own.

    I have black coffee in the mornings which are only 10 calories per shot. I then just drink green tea and water during the day. Fruit juice and fruit crushes are mega high in calories!

    I drink one black coffee in the morning, the rest of the day is water, soda water with a squeeze of lime juice, lemongrass and ginger tea, peppermint tea, green tea with lemon myrtle, the occasional Coke Zero and a cup of tea with milk and a sugar of an evening.

    I don't see the point in wasting calories on beverages, really, and I don't tolerate milk well.
