One organic drink I've found and love is Honest Kids Thirst Quenchers by Honest Tea.... We buy the boxes in bulk at Costco but these organic thirst quencher pouches can also be found online at Amazon

Water should be your main thirst-quencher. Keep filtered water, 100% fruit juice, and skim milk or calcium-fortified soy milk in your refrigerator instead of soda pop.
