I did get a short lucid dream and a false awakening that morning though, but I dont think that had anything to do with this method. Anyway, don't make the same mistakes as me. Don't drink too much, and try to fall asleep right after you drink.
Yup, too much water keeps you awake. Make sure to pee some out before bed.
