thirst-quenching

Ending dry mouth

Thirst-quenching describes drinks or foods that effectively satisfy thirst, typically suggesting refreshing coldness or wetness.

The term appears almost exclusively in advertising and product descriptions, where it has become somewhat clichéd.

Nothing beats a thirst-quenching glass of lemonade on a hot day.

Outside commercial contexts, people more often simply say refreshing or satisfying.
