NECTAR
Hint:
Think of the sugary liquid found in flowers that attracts bees, often called the "drink of the gods" in mythology.
Explanation:
"Sweet drink" points to "NECTAR" because nectar is the naturally sweet liquid found in flowers, often associated with drinks like floral teas or even mythical "drinks of the gods." The word itself comes from Latin and Greek roots meaning "overcoming death," but in everyday language, it simply refers to something deliciously sweet and drinkable. No wordplay here—it’s a straightforward definition where the clue matches the answer’s literal meaning.
