Bartending

• Bartending * Drinks, Cocktails & Bar Equipment *

The Wasteland bar is part saloon, part clinic, part neutral ground. A bartender keeps people watered, caffeinated, drunk, and talking instead of shooting.

Bartending Basics

Most bartending is reagent mixing. Put the listed reagents into a glass, shaker, bottle, or other reagent container and the reaction will create the final drink automatically when the required ratios are present.

Concept	Use	Notes
Reagent units	Recipes are measured in units, written as "u".	A 3u recipe can be scaled up by keeping the same ratio.
Shaker mixing	Use a shaker or glass to combine base liquors, juices, sodas, cream, and additives.	Reactions happen automatically once all reactants are present.
Heated drinks	Some drinks require minimum temperature.	Hot cocoa, hot ramen, teas, purified water, and a few dangerous drinks require heat.
Hazardous drinks	Some mixes use uranium, plasma, welding fuel, sulfuric acid, thermite, or medicine.	Serve with judgment. Several are novelty drinks more than sensible orders.

Wasteland Water

Water is its own service line in the Wasteland. Dirty water quenches thirst but harms the drinker; filtered and clean water are safer.

Product	Recipe	Notes
Filtered Water	Charcoal (1u) + Dirty Water (1u) -> Filtered Water (1u)	Still mildly poisonous in reagent data, but much safer than dirty or irradiated water.
Clean Water	Heat Filtered Water (1u) to 373 K+ -> Water (1u)	Final purification step.
Dirty Water	Abraxo Cleaner (1u) + Irradiated Water (1u) -> Dirty Water (1u)	Dirty water causes radiation and poison damage.
Desalinated Water	Heat Salt Water (2u) to 374 K+ -> Water (1u) + Table Salt (1u)	Useful when stuck with salt water.

Plant Teas

Plant teas all use the same core method: heat the listed extract with water at 354 K / 80 deg C minimum. Each 1u extract + 1u water produces 2u tea.

Tea	Recipe	Notes
Agave Tea	Agave Nectar Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Sweet tea; adds sugar while drinking.
Blackberry Tea	Blackberry Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Sweet berry tea.
Barrel Cactus Tea	Cactus Water Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Desert plant tea.
Brocflower Tea	Broc Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Heals minor Brute and Burn damage while drinking.
Datura Tea	Datura Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Poison profile: causes Asphyxiation damage.
Honey Mesquite Tea	Honey Mesquite Pod Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Sweet plant tea.
Mutfruit Tea	Mutfruit Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Wasteland fruit tea.
Nettle Tea	Nettle Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Herbal tea.
Prickly Pear Tea	Prickly Pear Fruit Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Sweet fruit tea.
Starlightberry Tea	Starlight Berry Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Sweet berry tea.
Tarberry Tea	Tarberry Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Sweet berry tea.
White Horsenettle Tea	White Horsenettle Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Inherits Datura Tea's poison behavior.
Xander Root Tea	Xander Extract (1u) + Water (1u)	Herbal root tea.
Fireant Nectar Tea	Fire Ant Nectar (1u) + Water (1u)	Heals Heat and Caustic damage while drinking.

Wasteland Stock Drinks
