I would avoid anything that is sweet because it could leave a sticky film in your mouth and throat that could affect your singing. If it's sweetened iced tea - avoid it. If it's unsweetened, it might be okay. But water is really best before an audition.
Break a leg!
Also... just FYI don't gargle with any mouthwash that contains alcohol before your audition. It will dry you out - especially if you are prone to dry mouth when you're nervous.

As long as it is unsweetened, iced teas are fine on a diet. Use low calorie sugar substitutes, or drink it unsweetened. Juices contain a lot of calories, but natural juices are very good for you. Depending on the type of diet, you can drink moderate amounts of juice. It's just counted toward your total daily food intake. Juice is not a "free food". For all diets, drinking lots of water is important. You can drink other low calorie beverages, but should be sure to drink lots of water also.

Iced tea can leave your mouth dry just like coffee can. Apple juice can leave your mouth slightly sticky, so try warm tea herbal tea with honey. Bring a thermos if you have one. If you don't, just stick to water.
Good luck

Unsweetened ice tea with lemon would be great. Avoid apple juice. It has too much sugar, which coats your throat.

Warm, unsweat tea is probably the best. Or water with lemon. Warm tea coats your throat without adding all the sugar build up. Good luck!

I've actually heard that warm tea is best because it helps your throat muscles relax. Lacking that, I'd drink the warmest or most room-temperature offering.

Yeah, stay away from milk definitely. I stick to water myself.
