DRINKS

On this page you will find complete descriptions of the favored drinks. You will see that each of the beverages has a description of it. Use this information to assist with your service. You will also see that all of the information regarding Feywine is included here to remind you of its effects. You will need to be aware of the composition of the guests if it is requested and confirm with Shalafi before it is served to someone other than an elf. For drink, elves mostly subsist on sparkling waters from cold mountain springs. However, they are not averse to wine and beverages of a similar nature..
  • SUDEA: A clear tea like drink served in the leutha`khaless
  • FEYWINE: The elves favorite drink, is a florescent green nectar created from the juice of flowers, mixed with honey and additional, secret ingredients. This nectar is of ancient origin and what its secret ingredients might be has long been a mystery to humans, dwarves, and the demihumans, as well as most elves. Feywine is used liberally at elven festivals. It induces frivolous behavior, lasting for days or even weeks. Elves can, however, turn off feywine's effects when necessary (for example, when defending against rampaging orc hordes). Humans, dwarves, and other races are not so lucky. The effects of feywine on these races is much greater than it is on elves, and large quantities can make a human lose all sense of self for months. Too much feywine is the cause behind stories of humans waking after reveling with the elves, only to discover that months have passed since their last memory. Because of this, elves rarely allow humans to consume feywine. The side effects are simply too great, and consumption only increases enmity against the elves. Any human attending an elven festival can expect water, mead, or nectar; only when the elves are particularly mischievous or when their judgment is somehow impaired will they allow a human to sample feywine. Since feywine doesn't keep well, elves never carry it on their travels.
  • SAERLOONIAN GLOWFIRE: Pale wine, luminous, taste reminiscent of pears.
  • SAERLOONIAN TOPAZ: Yellow amber wine w/ nutty quality and bold fruit overtones.
  • MEAD: Elves enjoy drinking mead, or fermented honey. This delicate drink agrees well with the elven palate and gives them a pleasant feeling. Greater quantities act on elves much as alcohol does on humans. Fortunately, elves feel none of the ill effects humans do when drinking this beverage.
  • EVERMEAD: The elven mead, imported from Eavermysst. The one to which all others are compared and found wanting.
  • CLARRY: Table wine blend sweetened w/ honey and spices.
  • ARABELLAN DRY: Fine red wine, very dry woodsy overtones and a slight berry taste.
  • BERDRUSKAN DARK: Heavy sweet and burning, almost black, high alcohol content.
  • MORIMATRA: A spiced wine favored by the Drow.
  • MUSHROOM WINE: A clear wine made from fermented mushrooms.
  • TALKANA: A very potent sweet purple wine, made from Ram Berries
  • CALDVA: Alcoholic beverage made of Talkana wine diluted with citrus juices and mixed with strong spices, and served hot
  • MULLED TALKANA: Heated Talkana, with mulling spices.
  • DWARVEN ALE: Ale is closer to a Honey Lager than to beer...a deep gold in color, and brewed from the grains and hops.
  • TUI: Elven beer similar to Dwarven Ale but less intoxicating and more suited to the elven palette.
  • ELVERQUISST: Ruby coloured liquor magically distilled from sunshine and rare summer fruits. Utterly smooth, the liquor is nonetheless flecked with gold and has an iridescence of both colour and flavor. It is highly prized at all times, but in the autumn rituals it is savored as if it is the gift of one final, perfect summer day.
  • QUEFIRRE: A distilled wine like drink made from fermented rice.
  • Sisyita`tae: A non-alcoholic beverage made by blending an equal amount of sisyita nectar and apple juice directly in a goblet. Served chilled in crystal or glass.
