    Hello random StarNet user, I'm some ape called Meriweather, and I'm here to teach you a few new alcoholic recipes. With a varied sector comes a varied palate, which can be a pain for those who need mixed drinks for a mixed company. So here's a cheat sheet with a few of the more common drinks, arranged by the species of origin. Drink responsibly and so on and so forth.

    Apex: hope you like bananas.
    1. Banana Bomb: My personal favorite. 1 part spiced rum, 1 part banana liqueur, 2 parts ginger beer. Stirred. Add half a banana, if the glass is big enough.
    2. Hairy Handshake: Packs a heavy punch. 2 parts banana liqueur, 1 part 100-proof vodka, 1 part kiwi juice. Shaken.
    3. Chestthumper: May prompt unwanted displays of territoriality. 2 parts whiskey, 3 parts banana shake, serve with chopped frozen banana for ice cubes.
    4. Purple Vacation: A light drink for sipping on the star-yacht. 1 part ape grape wine, 1 part ape grape soda, and 3 alcohol-infused ape grapes.
    Avian: let your inhibitions fly out the window.
    1. Bluntbeak: Expect slurred speech. 1 part beakseed whiskey, 1 part carrot juice.
    2. Nestmate: May cause confusion if said without context. 2 parts eggshoot vodka, 2 parts feathercrown liqueur, 1 part eggshoot juice.
    3. Birdbath: Wash your troubles away. 3 parts eggshoot vodka, 1 part carrot juice, 1 part pineapple juice.
    4. Pearlpea Necklace: Asked about in hushed tones by young drinkers. 3 parts pearlpea gin, 2 parts milk, 1 part crème de pearlpea.
    Floran: high chance of causing a violent drunk.
    1. Bone Mash: Thick, gritty, and unforgiving. 2 parts boneboo whiskey, 1 part oculemon juice. Crumble boneboo on top.
    2. Good Hunt: Not so good for whatever it's made of. 1 part meat wine, 1 part oculemon juice.
    3. STABS!: They always shout this one. 4 parts meat wine, 2 parts creamed offal, 1 part boneboo whiskey.
    4. Mary's Blood: The result of a deadly misunderstanding - she wasn't even named Mary. 1 part vodka, 2 parts blood. Ask about garnish.
    Glitch: acidic, electric, and otherwise hazardous to your furniture.
    1. Cogwheel: Keeps those wheels a-turning. 1 part boltbulb brandy, 1 part diodia juice, served with an alcohol-infused black current.
    2. Knight Errant: Tasty, but known to cause delusions of grandeur. 2 parts boltbulb brandy, 1 part automato juice.
    3. Fizz, Rattle, and Clank: Herald to a total breakdown. 3 parts diodia vodka, 2 parts diodia juice, 1 part boltbulb juice.
    4. Query: Pay attention to where it appears in the sentence. 1 part black current liqueur, 3 parts battery acid. Electrify at no higher than 80 volts and no lower than 60 volts.
    Human: lots of variety, better get a full-sized cheat sheet for these folks.
    1. Margarita: Some people claim that this drink is to blame. 1 part tequila, 1 part orange liqueur, 1 part lime juice. Shake with ice and rim the glass with salt.
    2. Dark and Stormy: Good in any weather. 1 part spiced rum, 2 parts ginger beer.
    3. White Russian: Much better than a white wedding. 2 parts vodka, 1 part cream, 1 part coffee liqueur.
    4. Bloody Mary: Hair of the dog. 1 part vodka, 2 parts tomato juice. Garnish with one or more of the following: hot sauce, peppers, olives, salt, celery, celery salt, lemon juice, bouillon, hopes, regrets, and missed connections.
    Hylotl: taste that salt sea water.
    1. Shipwreck: Has been known to cause its namesake. 1 part coralcreep brandy, 2 parts reefpod smoothie.
    2. Deep One: Very cold and very salty. 1 part coralcreep brandy, 1 part seawater. Fill glass with icecubes and rim with salt, garnish with an alcohol infused dirturchin.
    3. Rice Harvest: I expect it tastes like rice. 2 parts rice wine, 1 part rice milk. Served with a rice cake garnish.
    4. Waves on the Reef: As beautiful as it is delicious. 4 parts reefpod smoothie, 2 parts rice wine, 1 part reefpod rum, and a squirt of reefpod liqueur. Add ingredients in order, and with care. Give them time to settle.
    Unsorted: of origins unknown or multicultural.
    1. Rainbow Vision: Actually does cause rainbow vision. Do not serve to the designated pilot. 1 part avesmingo liqueur, 1 part oculemon juice, 1 part neonmelon juice. Use treated oculemon juice for non-florans.
    2. Techniflavor Dreamcoat: It's like a combination of every fruit you've both ever and never tasted, squared. 2 parts avesmingo liqueur, 2 parts reefpod smoothie, 1 part spring water.
    3. Salt of the Earth: Simple and dirty, for those who want to get drunk fast. Dirturchin Vodka with a squirt of apple juice. Serve in a salt rimmed glass.
    4. Toxic Shock: Illegal almost everywhere, but some thrillseekers will still seek it out. 1 part toxic top brandy, 2 parts toxic top juice, a squirt of toxic top antidote. Ingredients not stocked in most bars, thank goodness.
    Got a drink you want to see on here? Go ahead and post it below.
