If you slowly inhale through your nose while drinking the pressure from the air coming in will likely direct the water towards your esophagus as well as keeping water out of your nasal cavity.

You’ll also get a nose full of water because your sinuses would be below your mouth, but once it’s in your throat and you’re swallowing, it’ll make it to your stomach just fine.

A quick swallow, maybe? (I’m thinking small mouthfuls)
