It may depend on the type of surgery. When I have an endoscopy I can't have anything liquid at all, not even water, after midnight. But I think it's just the surgery, not the pre-op, unless the pre-op testing also requires limited intake. I would just give them a call to be certain. If coffee or tea are OK it's usually plain, no milk or cream.
