Yes. You can drink it or you can not drink it. One has to choose between one or the other, because one cannot do both.

Bolded for emphasis.

The opposite can also be stated. If you don't drink it, you always were going to not drink it.. See above statement about not being able to do both drinking and not drinking; which means a choice is always involved.
