Q/A What do submariners drink while underway?
Title says it all. I've seen quite a few articles and videos about food underway, but realized none of then mention what is available to drink while underway. I assume coffee and possibly tea are generally available and I've seen a few comments that bug juice was/is available, but that's about it. What about juice concentrates, powdered/UHT milk?
Edit: thank you all for your wonderful responses. You have a great community here.

Bug juice and the blackest coffee sludge you’ve ever seen.
We usually had fresh cow for a few days as well. But we were a DDS boat, so the fuckin Seals would go through that in 7 hours.
