I know it would be an extra layer of challenge to come up with No ABV potions for Brennan, but I also don't drink & would love to play along. Maybe zero ABV potions could be Part 2 of this series? Either way, great video, I'd love to see more!

Idea: Make the best bartenders, vintners, and brewers also be alchemists/potion crafters. PCs can train with one (for the right price) to gain proficiency with alchemist's tools, a cocktail recipe, and a unique potion recipe. Maybe even have glassware that are common magic items that do various things, like cool/heat drinks, automix its contents, glow while in contact with (non-alcohol) poison, or act as the silent version of the Alarm spell (to warn the bartender) when the holder is about to start a fight.

For the views, I challenge you to make a Kaoliang primary drink that you would consider "eminently drinkable". Not necessarily "the best drink ever", but elevated from "the worst" at least. There has to be an episode in workshopping around that. 3. Another episode idea: Alcoholic foods? I mean, yes, angostura iced cream, but skip that and move on to things people wouldn't have thought of. Also, possible "ANGUStora" roast beef sandwich?
