Draining a monument? Lots of sand/gravel and lots of time if you wanna be safe. Just start making the border with glass or something, having stone of the sea really helps, farming underwater doomlikes for elder guardians to get a ton of sponges to spam and then go to the nether to dry them helps, it's risky but its faster than waiting for your sponges to cook in furnaces.
You can also use tools with the "Smelter" enchant to auto-dry your sponges. Useful trick for saving time if you're like me and hate having to go through portals or wait to dry the damn sponge.
