Trouble a'brewing

[LigH]

Item description: "round edible tuber with many layers with a very strong taste". Onions have layers. I know that. I have seen Shrek. Ogers have layers too.

The "Mind Whisk" is sparkling and blue, by the way.

And in memoriam Arka and Einnol, we need the "Ole fallin' down".

What's your favourite "in character" brew?

From in game brochure:

                   Rogue's Red

Weruno's Wine Brokers is pleased to offer you this elegant wine, Rogue's Red.

Imported from the exotic town of Ojaveda it brings to the table a shared mystery of the peoples and the place of its origin.

This lovely red has a full mouthfeel texture and is pretty and complete in the mouth; with no hard edges

It is said to contain medicinal properties which adds to its mysterious allure.

A wonderful dinning wine; to be served at room temperature and opened with time to breath.

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions so far  , They've all gone into the barrel and I'll leave them to brew for a while and see what it tastes like at the end.

Keep the ideas coming,  the more the merrier

I had an idea and wanted to share and ask for your feedback.
Of course the first step in the development roadmap is "brewing" the base wine, beers, liquors... but many of you post a lot of drinks/mixes which seems to me more like a barman/barmaid work. Considering this I want your opinion on these subject:
- Would you be interested/use an actual crafting book to prepare mixes-cocktails? or would you simply avoid the the crafting part and just RP the mixing (what is happening at the moment)?
- Would you set the skill needed to craft them (probably brewing) low (0-10) or middle (20-30+)?

IMHO, "bar mixing" is not exactly part of "brewing" ... brewing would rather be the crafting of the ingredients for mixed drinks like cocktails.

I would say put it in a craft book. It could simply be a ton of combines that could be done in pretty much any container. And technically not every alcoholic liquid is considered a part of "brewing" either if wikipedia is to believed. So we can bend the rules a bit more. Just make sure that the mixing of drinks is relatively low level or at least scales with the amount of liquors put into. That way pretty much any character can mix drinks to offer their friends but not necessarily craft the liquor that goes into it.

In my opinion brewing seems like it would be part of or related to herbalism while mixing drinks or bartending seems more like low-level cooking.
