Drinks

I have noticed that alot of people have made their own drinks in Planeshift asides from the in game ale, beer, cider and red liquor. I just thought I'd ask the community as a whole what they drink in game. Wine? Cocktails? Anything. So... do tell!  :)
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

There are three kinds of people in this world.
Those who understand numbers and those who don't.

But if someone ICly asked you what vinyard it was from or of what vintage it was how would you answer? And what is your tea brewed from. This is where we get stuck and have to agree on certain things. Although I'd love to be able to have a bottle of wine at Kada's I don't even know if grapes will be implemented.

I'm of the opinion that generic items are fine but that specific types of those items should not be earthly. There for beer or ale would be fine but a pilsner or a bock would not. I have only drank two kinds of liquids in the game, potions and water.

...well, we have beer and ale, and I have never seen a field of hops. Why could we not have wine or tea? Just because the things aren't around on the level we have access to "right now" doesn't mean they don't exist. We would also have to have some sort of flour ...for pie and bread. We don't have those, but we have the items made from them. I would assume they are being grown on another level.

There is no interaction between the surface world and Yliakum, nor below it for the current time.
Judge: Are you trying to show contempt for this court, Mr Smith?
Smith: No, My Lord. I am attempting to conceal it.

Since PS is supposed to be more original than other games, in other words "unusual" to our world, two things come to my mind
1) coffee
2) tea
So popular that some people can't imagine a world without them. But it is almost no reason a at why we should have these in PS. The reason is maybe hidden.
Coffee and tea are words defining very wide range of meanings. First, maybe i'm wrong but coffee is generally made of seeds and tea from leaves. When we speak about these, it doesnt necessary need to be made from beans of the coffee plant or leaves and leaf buds of Camellia sinensis. There are different kinds of seeds and leaves.
I think PS should have plants for each of these, so that we can have actually coffee and tea, but made from somethink else than 90% of people think the coffee and tea are only made off.
So coffee and tea are fine for me as long as they dont refer to earth originated plants ;) and the drinker should know the plant he/she is drinking ;)
same goes about brewerages, wines... and so on.

EDIT, Yay! A ring, i love rings \o/

Ulber milk. Sometimes with a touch of rum.  :sorcerer:

I remember having Golden Hammer and Dwarven Dark, both dwarven brews. I don't know who came up with those names but they have a good kick. The rest is just a blur...

may as well toss my usual mulled rum in there. now there is a drink for the depths of winter. and for the deep damps of the stone labyrinth.
may laanx frighten the shadow from my path.
hardly because the shadow built the lexx.
the shadow will frighten laanx from my path.

Plain water: odorless, tasteless and clear. Easy for Sangwa to detect any substances on it.

Gotta be careful with Garile around. :P
Disclaimer: This is my opinion and I can be reasoned with. I'm probably right, though.

White Enkies!!!

A play on white russians.  Not my idea but, it's almost all I drink.

(White Russians: Khalua, Vodka and milk/light cream.  Tastes like chocolate milk with a touch of pure joy.)
