Japanese drinks
The traditional Japanese liquor is sake. 
Though nowadays, its a a less frequent accompaniment to dinner. Many Japanese now choose beers (the lager-type) to drink at the dinner table.
The non-alcoholic alternative is the usual Japanese green tea or o-cha.
There is also plum wine (which I haven't tried, but which I heard is おいいし (oiishi, meaning: delicious).
ごちそうさま（でした）
~ Gochisousama (deshita) ~
Notes:
Itadakimasu
is normally said before a meal - it means something like "I humbly
accept this food/drink/whatever" and is expressing thanks also for the
preparation of the meal.
Gochisousama (deshita) is uttered after a meal and means something like "thank you for treating me to this meal etc."
