Where do liquids go when you drink them?

Might seem like a silly question, but I’m not sure of the specifics on how a drink goes from your throat to your bladder.

Doesn’t the liquid go to your stomach along with the food you eat? Does it get evaporated by the acid or something? Does it go from your esophagus to your stomach to your intestines then bladder?

Or is urine not even partially the liquid we drink, but the end result of whatever liquids your body produced/was left with after digesting your drink, like how shit is what’s left and stored in the rectum (anus?) before expulsions?

This is just something that the specifics of which have been bothering me for over a handful of months lol. Would definitely appreciate an answer, but also semi-interested in a little more detail too if anyone would like to indulge that.

Thank you!!

Liquids go into your stomach, and then on into your intestines along with food you eat.

From there, it’s absorbed into your bloodstream through the intestines, just like food.

Urine is mostly the water we drink, plus additional byproducts of metabolism that your kidneys filter out.
