Have you drank the water? vs Have you drunk the water?

Both phrases are correct, but they are used in different contexts. 'Have you drunk the water?' is the correct form when using the past participle 'drunk' after 'have.' 'Have you drank the water?' is incorrect. The reason is because 'drank' is the simple past form of 'drink' and should not be used as a past participle.
