Is it permissible to drink while standing?
Drinking while standing is disliked, due to the prohibition by the Prophet (peace be upon him) regarding it. However, it is authentically reported that he did drink while standing. Thus, the prohibition indicates a disliking of Tanzih (a lesser degree of disliking), and his action (peace be upon him) clarifies its permissibility when there is a need.
