For example: making iced tea or punch with a powdered mix such as this one. This is different than the question of preparing coffee or tea as it does not involve heat.

1Why not? I think that some people use instant coffee on Shabbos. The only question is does the hot water cook the powder. – sabbahillel Sep 04 '20 at 20:21

This site does not provide a psak (and if your question appears to be asking for a ruling, it is subject to closure) but the issues present have been discussed and you can read up on them on sites like https://www.torahmusings.com/2014/08/making-tea-coffee-shabbos/ or on similar questions like https://judaism.stackexchange.com/questions/83502/why-is-making-tea-coffee-on-shabbos-not-considered-bishul – rosends Sep 04 '20 at 20:36

Does this answer your question? Why is making tea/coffee on shabbos not considered bishul – sabbahillel Sep 04 '20 at 21:00

This is a different question as it does not involve heat, as do tea and coffee. – therxv Sep 04 '20 at 21:18

What potential issues do you think might arise that you question whether this is permissible? – DonielF Sep 04 '20 at 22:35

Yes - it would be useful if you can present what melachot you think may be violated. I'm surmising that one of your concerns may be "coloring" / "dyeing" by adding a color to the water. There is no concern with coloring when it regards food unless your intent is solely for the color alone. You can't add food coloring to food, as I recall. – DanF Sep 07 '20 at 20:51

If the mixing does not involve heat, doesn't that make it more permissible? – Mordechai Nov 24 '20 at 20:51
