Hi Marianna, chill out sweetheart, it has been known for people to virtually dry drown on a teaspoon of liquid, as it has gone down the wrong way
HOWEVER this is very rare, and as long as you take your time and don't rush your drinks, particularly if they are hot, or for that matter soup, then you should be OK!.
The program should have explained the treatment for such an incident,
(like any choking, a stiff blow between the shoulder blades) to release the blockage, which in dry drowning is the Epiglottis, (the flap at the back of your mouth!.front throat area) moving to cover the Trachea (windpipe or airway) to stop liquid getting down into the lungs!.
Hope this helps, and you should be OK, why not see about doing a first aid course so you would be able to help people if this or any other minor accident happens!.
