thirst quencher

Satisfies dry mouths

A thirst quencher is a drink that satisfies thirst, especially one marketed as particularly refreshing or hydrating: After the hike, that lemonade was the perfect thirst quencher.

The term appears frequently in advertising for sports drinks and soft drinks, suggesting effective relief from thirst rather than mere liquid consumption.
