the use of 'much'

[munchkin2618]

I drink ____ water every day.

Why is "much" not appropriate for this sentence and for the sentences below?

I drink ____ Coca Cola every day.

I drink _____ milk every day.

You're probably aware, Munchkin, that a lot of is more appropriate in those sentences.

If you enter much/a lot of in the Search box at the top of the page, you'll find many links to other discussions on this topic.

Thank you. I guess I was too lazy to search the site.

I read the posts and I really learned a lot.
