Давайте выпьем кофе! Offer
Давайте пейте кофе! Imperative

Hi!

The first phrase is quite correct and usable. It means you're suggesting someone coffee with you.

The second phrase in this form is incorrect. But it can be corrected.

Давайте, пейте кофе!

In this case, it is correct, but very harsh. Sounds like you force some group of people drink coffee when they don't want to.

Дввайте!
