I believe the wording is "drinks which burn the throat" which naturally means:

• ❌ Coffee
• ❌ Alcoholic drinks
• ❌ Coca Cola
• ❌ Hot tea
• ❌ Chai lattes
• ✅ Sprite, other non-caffeinated soft drinks
• ✅ Hot Chocolate
• ✅ Kombucha
• ✅ Energy drinks???
• ✅ Herbal Tea (even while hot, but mostly if you're sick as a home remedy)

Most of the focus is interpreted as "contains caffeine and/or alcohol" but the wording is vague enough that it leaves for a lot of weird wiggle room people try to argue (based on convenience usually). It's quite silly
