World of WarCrafts: Elixir of Greater Intellect punch
Every Wednesday World of WarCrafts features a recipe or craft that teaches you how to make own real life version of in-game recipes and items. Weather or not you play a toon that uses Mana or has a use for Intellect you need to stay well hydrated to play WoW to the very best of your ability. Now, I know that the last time I wrote about a beverage 99% of your comments were about how I needed to add something, shall we say, stronger to give it more kick.
Once again I am not adding that stronger element but I have a good reason. If you are giving yourself an intellect buff don't you think it should clear your mind not make it more.... well, drunk? Now that I have given my recipe such a glowing introduction, I present you with Elixir of Greater Intellect Punch.
Greater Elixir of Intellect Punch
32 ounces Sparkling Southshore Cider
1 can Enriched Terocone Juice
1 cup Hyjal Nectar
1 1/2 Liters Gilneas Sparkling Water
1 Shiny Red Apple sliced
Mix all the juices in a large bowl or pitcher and mix well. Add The Gilneas Sparkling Water slowly and stir gently. Add the Shiny Red Apple slices and enjoy.
Translation Key:
Sparkling Southshore Cider -apple juice or cider
Enriched Terocone Juice - frozen cranberry juice concentrate
Hyjal Nectar - orange juice
Gilneas Sparkling Water - ginger ale
Shiny Red Apple - an apple duh
Thanks to Brooke for the original recipe.
For those of you that still want a stronger drink, don't worry I have not forgotten about you. I will be keeping my eyes open and bringing you something soon. Watch for it in the coming weeks. I'm not promising next week but soon none the less.

And to make it extra special like the drinks in the pic, try coating the rim of the glass in sherbert!

I must admit, I laughed out loud at "Shiny Red Apple - an apple duh"

You're linking in-game items in a pretend recipe before the real recipe? very... nerdy...

Looks interesting, but the ultra-high sugar content makes it more like a Major Dreamless Sleep Potion for me.
And where's the caffeine, or any of the other "smart drink" stuff? How can one boost one's intellect without caffeine?!? :-)

You could always substitute a Vault soda for the ginger ale for the caffeine boost. Or use a Vault Zero if you want to cut the sugar down some. The taste would be a little different, but I think it would still be good.

Ok commenter's.. Raise your hand if you generally are drinking while raiding/pvping/grouping.
*raises hand*

Drunk, stoned, sleep deprived, it's the same thing.

Being a Brit, 'cider' means 'alcoholic apple juice' (or something like it), so you Americans can make it with hard cider and you're set!

Wheres the booze?
Maureen Carter Jan 24th 2008 1:35PM
If you read the post you'll see why there is no booze.

Hate to nitpick, but, "Weather or not"?
'Whether'

@10 oops. *sheepish smile* That is just one of those things that is too easy to not see when you proof read.

@16 - Same response as the earlier question of the same nature... Read the entire post, and it will answer your question.
Actually made this one and must say, although quite sweet, it's pretty damn tasty.
Me and a friend came up with our own versions of:
