I was thinking about writing up something like this for a while, I'd like to see something with golden apples though. Maybe a special cider that gives additional buffs?
AND BOTTLES! allow us to bottle it god damned it! it destroys the RP momentum when they ask for a bottle and they get a cup or a huge-ass casket. a filled bottle + a mug in your crafting window should give you a cup of <insert alcohol> and 2/3 of a bottle <insert alcohol> and goes back to a bottle after everything have been drunk of course.
