Many great works of fiction have taken their art from amazing to amazingzingzing, by having incorporated some oh-so-brilliant and too-damn-creative,  intoxicating alcoholic beverages into their story, to give you a taste of their world.

Here’s a list of 9 fictional beverages we would love to import from the reel world!

.

1. Bloodwine  |  Star Trek  – The most famous alcoholic beverage among the Klingons. A very important part of the Klingon culture; it is traditional for Klingons to celebrate victorious battles with copious amounts of bloodwine. Bloodwine is extremely strong and is apparently made from the blood of animals native to the Klingon homeworld. 

2. Samarian Sunset  |  Star Trek: The Next Generation  – A fancy alcoholic drink that is served clear, but when the glass is tapped slightly, it becomes coloured with mixed hues. One of the most popular drinks in Guinan’s bar Ten Forward, particularly among Cardassians.

3. Black Yukon Sucker Punch  |  Twin Peaks  – Ordered by Judge Sternwood and served to him, Agent Cooper and Sheriff Truman. The judge warns the drink will “sneak up on you!”

 4. Victory Gin  |  Nineteen Eighty-Four  – A cheap, low-quality drink supplied by the government. Winston Smith, the protagonist, frequently drinks it despite its disagreeable taste and smell.

5. Butterbeer  |  Harry Potter  – a popular wizarding beverage “a little bit like less-sickly butterscotch”, served cold in bottles and hot in “foaming tankards”. In Hogsmeade, it’s sold at The Three Broomsticks and in Diagon Alley, the drink is sold at the Leaky Cauldron.

6. Buzz Beer  |  The Drew Carey Show  – a mixture of beer and coffee brewed and mixed by the characters in Drew’s garage. The production and marketing of this product created numerous situations in which the dynamics of the characters played out.

7. Duff Beer  |  The Simpsons  – consumed by many characters, this beer has been prevalent throughout the series since its introduction in May 1990, and provides a basis for numerous storylines. Variations include Duff Lite, Duff Dry, and Duff Dark. Fudd Beer is sold in competition with Duff Beer, and is reportedly popular in Shelbyville despite having blinded hillbillies.

8. Schraderbräu  |  Breaking Bad – Hank Schrader’s garage homebrew.

9. Moloko Plus  | A Clockwork Orange  – a.k.a. “milk with knives in it”; drunk by the protagonist to get him in the mood for “a bit of the old ultraviolence”
