Answer

Difference between  PRENDRE and BOIRE 
it is the same difference as the English HAVE and DRINK

It sounds better to say "I am having a coffee with my desert" rather than "I am drinking a coffee..."
C'est donc aussi mieux de dire: "Je prends un café" plutôt que "Je bois un café"

NB: Prendre : it is prenDRE and not prenDER
