What's the liquid in its mouth? Is it water on leaves or something that it is regurgitating from mouth?

I got some video of this bee with the liquid expanding and disappearing and it is bringing up so many questions for me! What is happening here? Is it drinking water? Or is this part of a process of honey making? Do non-honey bees even make honey at all? Is it a sweat bee? Is that why they call them sweat bees? Is it actually sweat? I will have to investigate!

This Lasioglossum is "bubbling" while resting on a Dillwynia cinerascens flower. It regurgitated nectar from it's crop back onto its tongue and held it there to allow evaporation and the "thickening" of the nectar. This process was repeated over and over again during the 10 minutes I watched.

Found this little bee on Asclepias fascicularis. Concentrating nectar. Looks metallic black with just a few touches of pale yellow color on legs, thorax, head. Maybe 5 or 6mm long. 82 degrees today.

These bees were busy in the bottlebrush flowers, but lightening the water load with some intensive bubble evaporation. These are two different bees (I assume).Hylaeus (Prosopistemon)

Probably H. perhumilis or H. agilis.
It foraged on Metrosideros excelsa flowers for several minutes then sat on a leaf, periodically regurgitating a small drop of liquid (presumably nectar) which it held in its mouthparts before swallowing it again. It did this several times.

This neat masked little bee was blowing a bubble for some reason.
Anyone have an idea why ?
Cool looking beast.
