Really depends on what you mean by "abundance". You could drink so much water that you trigger renal failure.

But otherwise, water's fine.

Rosehip tea is nice and very tart with a bit of natural sweetness. It's naturally high in vitamin C, and about the only major side effect is that it can make you piss a lot, which is actually considered beneficial to kidney function as long as you keep hydrated.

Some herbs are common in both medical supplements and herbal teas. Most of these, such as valerian root (common in bedtime teas), are usually harmless in the quantity you'd drink. If you look them up, they're probably still going to have noted side effects, but this is mostly just because health and nutrition companies would rather list a side effect that occurred in under 10 people than risk a lawsuit for not listing it.
Of course, St. John's Wort has some problems in the way it interacts with certain medicines, functioning similar to how grapefruit/citrus enzymes cause toxicity with heart medications like statins.

course there is.
buy some of those low sugar fruit drinks, ocean spray makes them. also buy some aspartame

dilute low sugar juice drink with water and ice then add a couple packets of aspartame. You gotta dilute them because of the acidity.
