If someone had a dry nest like a plaster nest how would they let the queen drink? Would they just rely on the fact that the workers would feed her liquid food (and she could maybe eat some eggs) and the workers could be given water in their forgaing area. Thanks

This is one of the reasons Plaster is not recomended for nests

Put water in the foraging area anyway, the workers will give the queen water if she needs it, the damp nest is generally for the larvae to be healthy more than the queen, depends on the species
