On the otherhand I would advise you speak to your midwife about the pros and cons of the test, you are not legally obliged to have the test done. It is only offered to you as for whatever reason, they consider you to be at risk of possibly developing gestational diabetes.

in our hospital it is lucozade they use and you are given it in the clinic, usually a few women all at the same time.
they dont stand over you to watch you drink it, but as others have said its not worth going if you aren't going to do the test properly and you and your baby's health could be at risk.
