Bazi tea: Is a very aromatic tea brewed fresh from Bazi leaves. Served hot and heavily sugared in three tiny cups. It is served and drunk in rapid succession. Some Masters or Mistresses may expect the kajira to take each cup as he or she empties it.

Tea is extremely important to the nomads. It is served hot and heavily sugared. It gives them strength then, in virtue of the sugar, and cools the, by making them sweat as well as stimulating them. It is drunk three small cups

"In turn, from the oasis, the nomads receive, most importantly, Sa-Tarna grain and the Bazi Tea." Tribesmen of Gor, page 37

"From time to time the caravan stopped and, boiling water over tiny fires, we made tea." Tribesmen of Gor, page 72

"...'Is it ready?' I asked. I looked at the tiny copper kettle on the small stand. A tiny kaiila-dung fire burned under it. A small, heavy curved glass was nearby, on a flat box, which would hold some two ounces of the tea. Bazi tea is drunk in tiny glasses, usually three at a time, carefully measured." Tribesmen of Gor, page 139

Black wine: Is a rich, aromatic, hot drink comparable to coffee on earth. Brewed from the fresh, dark beans grown in the mountains of Thentis. "Second slave" indicates that the patron prefers to drink it without sugar or milk. This custom is derived from the fact that the sugar and milk are placed in the cup by one slave before a second slave fills the cup with blackwine. It is served with colored sugars and powdered bosk milk, or black in tiny cups or a small mug. Kept in a kettle above the fire flames.

The two slaves, their chains removed, now returned, and began to serve the black wine. The voluptuous slave of Aemilianus, whom he had not yet named, placed the tiny silver cups, on small stands, before us. The lovely little slave in bluish gauze, whom he had not yet named, holding the narrow spouted, silver pouring vessel in a heavy cloth, to retain its heat and protect her hands, poured the scalding, steaming black fluid, in narrow, tiny streams, into the small cups. She poured into the cups only the amount that would be compatible with the assorted sugars and creams which the guest might desire, if any, these being added in, and stirred, if, and as, pertinent, by Aemilianus` slave, who directed the serving.

I had heard of blackwine, but had never had any. It is drunk in Thentis, but I had never heard of it being much drunk in other Gorean cities….Then I picked up one of the thick, heavy clay bowls…It was extremely strong, and bitter, but it was hot, and unmistakably, it was coffee." Assassin of Gor, pages 106

Bosk milk: a staple of life for the Wagon Peoples. Nomads of Gor, page 5

Breeding wine: a sweet beverage which counteracts the effects of slave wine, making a slave girl fertile; also called second wine.

Fermented milk curds: This is a drink usually only drunk by the Wagon People. Made from fermented milk curds. It is served in a metal cup.

"By one fire I could see a squat Tuchuk, hands on his hips, dancing and stamping about by himself, drunk on fermented milk curds, dancing, according to Kamchak, to please the sky." Nomads of Gor, page 28

Hot chocolate: This is a drink usually served to free woman in their homes by their slaves. It is served in a ceramic goblet.

"This is warmed chocolate," I said, pleased. It was very rich and creamy. "Yes, Mistress," said the girl. "It is very good," I said. "Thank you, Mistress," she said. "Is it from Earth?" I asked. "Not directly," she said. "Many things here, of course, ultimately have an Earth origin. It is not improbable that the beans from which the first cacao trees on this world were grown were brought from Earth." "Do the trees grow near here?" I asked. "No Mistress," she said, "we obtain the beans from which the chocolate is made, from Cosian merchants, who in turn, obtain them in the tropics." Kajira of Gor, page 61

Ice: a rare item on Gor because of the limit storage areas. The little ice that is stored is kept in ice chests or in ice houses under sawdust.

"The High Initiate had risen to his feet and accepted a goblet from another Initiate, probably containing minced flavored ices, for the day was warm. Free women, here and there, were delicately putting tidbits beneath their veils. Some even lifted their veils somewhat to drink of the flavored ices. Some low-caste free women drank through their veils, and there were yellow and purple stains on the rep-cloth." Assassins of Gor, page 141

"My house, incidentally, like most Gorean houses, had no ice chest. There is little cold storage on Gor. Generally food is preserved by being dried or salted. Some cold storage, of course, does exist. Ice is cut from ponds in the winter, and then stored in ice houses, under sawdust. " Guardsman of Gor, page 295

Milk: Use in blackwine (powdered) or drank by itself. Can be made from bosk, verr or kaiila. It is served in a metal cup.

"The smell of fruit and vegetables, and Verr milk was very strong." Savages of Gor, page 60

"I heard the lowing of the milk bosk from among the wagons." Nomads of Gor, page 27

"Too I had brought up a small bowl of powdered bosk milk. We had finished the creams last night." Guardsman of Gor, page 295

"...; kaiila milk, which is used, like verr milk, by the peoples of the Tahari, is reddish, and has a strong, salty taste; it contains much ferrous sulfate...." Tribesmen of Gor, page 71

Second wine: also called breeding wine, reverses the effects of slave wine:

In the concentrated state as in slave wine developed by the Caste of Physicians the effect ( of sip root ) is almost indefinite, usually requiring a releaser for its remission, usually administered to a slave in what is called breeding wine or second wine" Blood Brothers of Gor page 319 slave wine: a black, bitter beverage that acts as a contraceptive; its effect is instantaneous and lasts for well over a month; can be counter-acted with a another, sweet-tasting beverage:
