drinkless
Lacking any liquid
Drinkless means without a drink or lacking something to drink.
It typically describes a state of being empty-handed at a social gathering where beverages are expected, or a situation where drinks are unavailable.
I stood drinkless at the bar for ten minutes before anyone took my order.
The word is uncommon and somewhat literary, more likely to appear in descriptive prose than everyday speech.
