A plastic t-fitting and a way to close it off would be the simplest and cheapest. They also make plugs for the ID of most tubing sizes.
A lot of people don't use drain tubing because once a loop is filled, it isn't likely you are going to drain and refill it multiple times in the course of a year. And if it's 1+ year, you'd likely just be replacing the tubing anyway.
I just remove the lowest point on my loop and let it drain.

I use a T-Block fitting w/ a Bitspower Mini-Valve on one end and a stop fitting. Like rubix, it's about the lowest point in my loop. When I want to drain, I just remove the stop fitting, and attach another fitting and hose, then open valve to drain.
