What do you drink during the day?

Let's say you're sat at your desk - at work, Uni, or whatever - and you become thirsty, like I've been informed humans do.
Besides water - boring! - how would you usually deal with this?
I used to drink a lot of Pepsi Max at work, but I'm a bit worried about the acidity affecting my enamel. I then went through a phase of getting a lot of coffee, but I felt like it was messing with my guts a bit. So now I mostly drink tea, though I do miss the kick coffee gives you.
Please tell me what you drink. It's important to me.

During most days I have 2 large 1 pint mugs of coffee which I have throughout the day as I don't start work until 4pm.
I recently switched to decaff and so far I'm not noticing any caffeine withdrawal which I'm a bit surprised by given my rather high consumption level.

Between four and six bottles of water whilst at work.

I’m currently on a phase of not drinking as much water through the day (I drink a lot of water at home) so I only really have my monster white energy drink alongside my breakfast and then a Diet Coke or Fanta at lunchtime.

Have a coffee in the morning with breakfast, either just Kenco Colombian from my Tassimo or some of my fancy ground stuff. A few bottles of water for the rest of the day and usually beer with dinner.
They have a Starbucks bit at college so I sometimes treat myself to that.

I’m a huge energy drink fiend. On a typical work day I drink 2 500ml cans. I’ll usually have a coffee/green tea or two and I drink a few litres of water too.

Tea, coffee and water.
My stomach seems to have decided that any and all energy drinks will be rewarded with three hours of crippling heartburn now unless downed in a Jagerbomb at 4 in the morning in some godawful bar.

Of course.

I don't drink tea or coffee so my daytime liquid consumption is generally made up of a mix of water, squash (lemon or blackcurrant usually), and Pepsi Max.
I've been going in pretty heavy on the Pepsi for the last couple of years and I was a bit concerned about the effect this might have on my teeth but they seem to be holding up so far!

Where's the "Not enough" option?
At work I mostly drink Coffee, followed by Tea.
But no water unless I bring it into work. This is because the only "drinking water" is coming out of the cold tap in the basin in the men's toilet. Unless it's boiled, I ain't drinking that stuff. It must be illegal.
Filling the kettle after someone has had a gooseberry fool is terrible.
So unless I want to chug about 10 teas during a work day, I go home feeling dehydrated quite often.
At home I'll drink lots of water, and wine/whisky.

Water. But I bet I don't drink nearly enough of it.

At work I only really drink water. I have the occasional can of Pepsi Max if I can be arsed to walk to the vending machine.
At home I drink either water or cups of tea.

I normally have a bottle of water and something like a Pepsi Max. I'll have an energy drink a couple of times a week if the kids disrupt my sleep too much, but I'm trying to cut down.

Water and a lot of coffee.
I also have one of those dissolvable vitamin tablets with one of the glasses of water. I dunno if does much, although i rarely get ill and it makes me feel better. The latter may be a placebo effect though I guess.
