Drink

Drinks come in many forms in WoW

In World of Warcraft, drink can mean a couple of things:

1. An beverage item that your character can consume by sitting down that restores mana over a specified time period. Food items are the analog to drink for health.
2. A beverage item, generally created by cooking, that your character can consume that provides a benefit other than mana restoration.
3. An alcoholic beverage item that provides an inebriation debuff known as becoming tipsy. Some items provide a useful buff as well as being alcoholic.
4. As a verb, the act of consuming a drink item, an elixir, or a potion.

Drink Items

Drink items can be received as Quest rewards, purchased from vendors, created with cooking*, found in containers such as Water Barrels and Milk Barrels, and summoned by Mages. Drink items are often referred to collectively as "water", which is not strictly accurate.

Only a few types of drink can be created with cooking:

• [Thistle Tea] - restores rogue's energy rather than mana
• [Goldthorn Tea] - a mana restoring drink
• [Egg Nog] an alcoholic beverage that is actually a food - it restores health rather than mana
• [Hot Apple Cider] - a mana restoring drink, with 'well fed' buff
• [Captain Rumsey's Lager] - an alcoholic beverage that gives a fishing skill buff.

Alcoholic Drinks

Alcoholic drinks (ale, beer, wine, mead, etc.) can be purchased from innkeepers, vendors and from events, received as quest rewards, or found as drops. A few can be made by cooking. These drinks do not restore mana, but instead cause your character to become tipsy. (Egg Nog restores health.) Some also provide temporary stat buffs. As of Patch 2.1, these buffs count as [Well Fed] and do not stack with food buffs anymore.
