Explanation
This sentence is correct because it clearly contrasts two qualities of the liquid: it was "not particularly inviting" (unappealing in appearance or taste) but still "drinkable" (safe or acceptable to consume). The structure uses the contrastive conjunction "but" properly, making the sentence grammatically and logically sound.
