You'll at least have to explain it. "Something unspecified (yet we DO know
that it is not a person, but a thing, hence it's less unspecified than it
should be) is set up to drink."
If everyone is expected to drink the coffee, the most direct way to say this
is {qa'vIn yItlhutlh}. If you don't know who will want to drink the coffee,
go for {qa'vIn vutlu'pu'}.
