Nerwacis’ Stashes of Savouring – Drinks

Imagine you’re in a tavern, and you desperately want to celebrate the survival of the last dungeon and maybe even speak a toast to those who gave their lives. Isn’t it embarrassing every time the barkeep has nothing more to offer than »Ale« or »Beer« or »Mead«? Shouldn’t there be some decent drinks? Maybe specific to this town or bar and only served here?

So you, as the DM, might be in sudden need for a fancy drink? Alas! Fear no more, here it is:
