Dwarves, given time, will eventually get thirsty, as indicated by a blue down arrow blinking over the thirsty dwarf. A thirsty dwarf prefers to drink booze. If none is available, they will go to the nearest water source and drink. This is usually a well inside your fortress, but they will drink from a river or brook if there are no wells nearby, and have been observed to drink from murky pools if there are no other sources of water. A dwarf can live on water indefinitely if there is no booze to be had, but will get unhappy thoughts from doing so - dwarves are highly dependent on alcohol.
Dwarves seem to be capable of subsiding on vomit and slime in particularly dire times, though this is traumatizing and will quickly result in tantrums and insanity. This will usually only happen in cases of dwarves walling themselves in and being forgotten and in challenge embark locations.
A resting dwarf will not do anything on their own until they have recovered from recent injuries (preferably inside a hospital), and will depend on others to provide them with food and drink. They will not be given booze but receive water carried in buckets.
