Hi is it ok for my 7yr old kid to drink water are apple juice while taking liquid antibiotics for strep she hates the taste of it thank you.

It's ok: A little of either one is ok - just no milk! Milk often interferes with medication. If a medicine is bitter I sometimes offer small tsp chocolate syrup right after medication to "knock off" the bitter taste from the tongue.
