                 $('.orders').html(items);

Solution 1

Change your code this way

C#

$(function () {
            $('#<%= add_order.ClientID %>').on('click', function () {
                 var name = $('#<%= name1.ClientID %>').val();
                 var drink = $('#<%= drink1.ClientID %>').val();
                 var items="<li>name: " + name + ", drink: " + drink + "</li>";
                 $('.orders').append(items);
                 return false;
             });
});
