liquid refreshment
Something to sip
Liquid refreshment is a slightly formal or playful way of referring to a drink, especially an alcoholic one.
The phrase often carries a hint of irony or deliberate understatement: After that meeting, I could use some liquid refreshment.
It suggests a civilized pause for beverages rather than simply grabbing a drink.
