You know those little shots of creamer they serve at the diner? (Intergalactic House of Pancakes, in this case).

Half-and-halves? Half-and-halfs?

Nah, the orders themselves are numerable. "How many orders of water do you want?" That you colloquially shorten it to "waters" is irrelevant. Even if you needed to order by volume, you would ask for UNITs (liter, gallon, barrel, etc.) of water.
