Beverage Recipes
Alcoholic | Dairy-Based Fruit-Based | Grain-Based | Hot
Humans and their ancestors have long sipped from streams. Water is required for life. But over time, we have learned to spike our drink with a variety of tempting flavors. The resulting beverages do more than just slake our thirst. They improve our well being, form the centerpiece of elaborate ceremonies and bind family, friends and the larger community together.

Fruit juices deliver a sweet punch of energy. Hot beverages warm the soul. Coffee and tea perk up the spirit. Herbal tisanes sooth the stomach and cure ills. Alcoholic beverages cement friendships and encourage conversation. Carbonated drinks clear the palate and tickle the nose.
