So I'm assuming that non-calorie drinks like coffee, water, tea are all good in between meals?
I pretty much just drink water all day but I sip two cups of coffee (black)throughout the first part of the morning. However, in the summer I love herbal iced teas.

You can even have caloric drinks, if they aren't heavily sweetened -- milk, fruit or vegetable juices, I suppose you could have keffir or whatever too.

I think those would be fine. You'll see on the homepage that a dab of sugar added to beverages is even allowable.
My personal rule of thumb (prot) on beverages is this: If sugar is a small addition I add then the beverage is allowed. If it's an essential ingredient, it's not.
Juice has a lot of naturally occurring sugars but since it's too expensive for me to drink more than once a day, I haven't had to develop a prot yet.
