Spiced Jybbuk Juice

Spiced Jybbuk Juice was a beverage made with jybbuk slush covered in condensed nerf milk with a candied hot pepper garnish. It was created by the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs, who used the candied hot peppers to replace the traditional fruit garnish used with jybbuk slush and condensed nerf milk by the people of the planet Etai. In 35 ABY, he included a recipe for the drink in his third cookbook, The Ultimate Cookbook.
==Description==
Spiced Jybbuk Juice was a beverage consisting of red jybbuk slush covered in a layer of white condensed nerf milk with a garnish that included green candied hot peppers as well as red elements and a green slice.
==History==
The beverage was created by the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs as a variant of the people of the Mid Rim planetEndless Vigil Etai's consumption of jybbuk slush and condensed nerf milk with a traditional fruit garnish. Tuggs was inspired to swap out the standard fruit garnish for the sparkling peppers after hearing about how the people of Etai claimed that the etaan crystals found there could be used in place of kyber crystals when powering a lightsaber.
Although he believed the standard beverage combination was already good, the Artiodac felt the sweetness could be balanced out by the heat of the peppers. After a culinary tour of the galaxy that he took between 34 ABY and 35 ABY, Tuggs included the recipe for Spiced Jybbuk Juice in his third cookbook, The Ultimate Cookbook, which was published in 35 ABY. In the book, he admitted that he was still unsure if the claim about lightsabers that had inspired the beverage was true, unaware that etaan crystals were in fact just an unusual form of kyber.
==Behind the scenes==
Spiced Jybbuk Juice was created as a recipe for Star Wars: The Ultimate Cookbook, a 2023 recipe book written by Jenn Fujikawa and Marc Sumerak. The out-of-universe recipe for the beverage makes use of jalapeño slices, granulated sugar, frozen strawberries, frozen watermelon, coconut water, lime juice, sweetened condensed milk, and a lime.
