Drinking
Hilarious drinking often touches indulgence that pleases now but may discredit later — and the thwarted reach for clear water you can't quite get to. The dream may ask where present enjoyment risks your good name, what wholesome thing you strain toward but fail to reach, and whether a pleasure offered slyly is one to accept or decline.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for drinking, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
For a woman to dream of hilarious drinking, denotes that she is engaging in affairs which may work to her discredit, though she may now find much pleasure in the same. If she dreams that she fails to drink clear water, though she uses her best efforts to do so, she will fail to enjoy some pleasure that is insinuatingly offered her.
