Plain iced tea.
Mint tea, either mint mixed with black tea or pure mint.
Water flavoured with syrups such as mint or rose.
Mexican-style fruit drinks (made from the equivalent of Kool Aid )
with less sugar than the packet states.
Black coffee with ice.
Used to make a mint/vinegar/sugar syrup but we don't have any mint
growing this year.
Experimenting with rice/almond horchata (Mexican rice drink).

Nothing dreadfully sweet when it's hot out.
