I'd order "whiskey and water" but I'm not sure what that would get me or if there would need to be further clarification. Used to be "whiskey and branch water" was a thing, but I'm not sure (a) what that was or (b) if that terminology is still in use.

That was what complainy guy said people who ordered branch water should get - a glass of muddy creek water with leaves in it. Also, actual rocks. That sort of thing.
So it actually means still water rather than soda? Or more specifically something like Evian?

Yeah, they didn't live in sheep or cow country. But I'd put the taste of the spring I grew up on against just about anything. (damned mining company that destroyed the spring system)
