clear liquid diet
Only transparent fluids
A clear liquid diet consists of transparent fluids and foods that leave no residue in the digestive tract: water, broth, plain gelatin, clear juices like apple or white grape, and tea or coffee without milk.
Doctors prescribe it before medical procedures such as colonoscopies, or after surgery when the gut needs rest: He was on a clear liquid diet for two days before the procedure.
