There's a Perfect Wine for Each Star Trek Series

[Finn]

Why not for each episode.

A screwdriver for Threshold?

We're talking Thunderbird here.

Thunderbird with Jagermeister floating on top!

 

[Henoch]

I'm a bourbon man:

 

[Henoch]

I almost bought a bottle of James T. Kirk, but it was a little pricey, but I heard it was pretty good bourbon.

 

[XCV330]

Prune Juice for TNG's "Family"

 

[SJGardner]

For TNG's "Relics" (and by extension, for TOS' "By Any Other Name"), I'd propose Blue Curaçao liqueur mixed with peach juice. It's... it's... it's green.

I wonder what could be used to approximate Bajoran spring wine though.

 

[Qonundrum]

No thanks, good entertainment doesn't need anyone to be inebriated while watching it. On the other hand, some shows benefit from the stars being blitzed. Like a few game shows from the 1970s...

Besides, I'd rather buy boxed wine than boxed wine poured into a bottle, corked, then sold at an exorbitant price well beyond any rational excuse.

 

[Mygia]

I was enjoying the first episode of PIC with a bottle of French red wine, a cuvée by Mas de Gourgonnier (AOP Les Baux de Provence) made from grenache, syrah, cabernet sauvignon and carignan.

I often cook with boxed wine (no one's going to see the packaging).

 

[Roundabout]

Since there isn't any blood wine for sale, a Bloody Mary may suffice when watching episodes like "Day of the Dove", "Heart of Glory", "Redemption", "The Way of the Warrior", "Once More Unto the Breach".

Since there isn't any blood wine for sale

Are you sure?

 

[Lord Garth]

I've been trying to stay dry... but these drinks are very tempting.

 

[Roundabout]

Are you sure?

Is that moonshine? Have you had the honor or dishonor of trying it? Does it taste good?

What will they come up with next? Romulan ale?

I guess somebody did.

It might be fitting, or not, to drink that while watching PIC.

For TNG's "Relics" (and by extension, for TOS' "By Any Other Name"), I'd propose Blue Curaçao liqueur mixed with peach juice. It's... it's... it's green.

I wonder what could be used to approximate Bajoran spring wine though.

I've seen Blue Curacao used as an ingredient in a homemade concoction of Romulan ale. Be careful not to confuse it with cool mint Listerine.

However, to a connoisseur, any earthly version of the booze would probably be considered faaaaaaaake Romulan ale.

 

[Tracy Trek]

Chateau Picard for TNG.

 

[Tenacity]

The Corbomite Maneuver.

"But first ... the tranya."

Who knows, it might be some algae-based biodegradable material that just conveniently looks like plastic.

They DO have soy and other bio-degradable plant-based plastics out there.
