Tranya

Tranya was an orange or pink-colored beverage originating from the First Federation. 
It was first introduced to the United Federation of Planets in 2266, when Balok, who enjoyed drinking tranya, served it to personnel visiting a pilot ship sent from the Fesarius. ()
By the 24th century, tranya was available outside the First Federation. Odo ordered two "very cold" tranyas for Benjamin Sisko and himself at Quark's in 2371, while he was hosting Curzon Dax's personality during Jadzia Dax's zhian'tara. ()
In 2399, Bjayzl served drugged tranya to Bruce Maddox on Freecloud. ()
== Background information ==
Tranya wasn't physically described in the script of "The Corbomite Maneuver". However, in the episode's final draft script, Balok said about the drink's name, "It is not easily translatable."
The tranya that Balok served the crew was, in fact, grapefruit juice, which young Clint Howard absolutely hated. He said in an interview that he had to work very hard at making it look like he actually liked it. (TOS Season 1 DVD special features)
William Shatner claimed that tranya was composed of "warm, food-colored apricot juice." (Star Trek Memories, p. 110)
In The Comedy Central Roast of William Shatner, it was implied that tranya could be an addictive beverage and that Balok had developed a bit of a drinking problem.
According to props master Mario Moreira, a drink in Clint Howard's Orion character's lair was also tranya.
