Butterflies consume flower nectar, and occasionally supplemental water (and sodium from salt, even from human sweat). But their wings are so light and delicate that they will not function if wet (as when they first emerge from the pupal stage). Fortunately, most wing tissue sheds liquids such as rain.
In my experience they don't hate much. But I have seen one turn away in utter disgust upon landing on a plate of Chinese noodles covered in lobster sauce. So I would guess: Lobster Sauce.
When I say turn away in disgust - I mean this guy really snubbed his nose at it. He wanted nothing to do with it. I'm assuming from a distance it just looked like a light garlic sauce or maybe even plain noodles.... as soon as he realized lobsters were involved... He took right off. didn't even look back.
Butterflies drink water through a process called puddling, in which they sip water from puddles, damp soil, or wet sand using their proboscis. They need to ingest water to regulate their metabolism and reproductive functions.
Butterflies drink nectar from flowers using a long tube-like structure called a proboscis. Nectar provides butterflies with the necessary nutrients and energy they need to survive.
Rice paper butterflies primarily feed on nectar from flowers. They also occasionally drink tree sap and feed on fruit juices. This species does not consume solid food.
Lotis blue butterflies primarily feed on flower nectar for energy. They are specially attracted to specific plant species such as legumes like clover, lupine, and vetch, as well as thistles and milkweeds. Some lotis blue butterflies may also feed on tree sap or rotting fruits.
Yes, moths can drink sugar water. They have a proboscis, a long straw-like mouthpart, which they use to feed on nectar, fruit juices, and other sugary liquids. Offering sugar water can be a helpful way to attract moths for observation or photography.

Most tap water (unless labeled differently) is ok to drink. If you mean water in the sink, the sink must be clean, too, and the water free of contaminants.

Do you mean drink? I'm not to sure if they can, actually I think they'll drink the water they swim in.
Yes, I almost always drink sink water and never get sick, although it may vary from place to place.
Ice floats and melts in your drink
They drink from all sorts of flowers. They mostly drink from daises.
Ice cubes don't sink in water, as the density of an ice cube is less than the density of water.
Because then they will sink like a rock due to the 'heavy' water.
