Sockan Brand Cactus Extract

Sockan Brand Cactus Extract, also called Cactus Extract, The Most Quenchy, Sockan Juice, and SBCE, is a drink made primarily out of cactus juice and Cream Soda, plus a few other unknown ingredients. While it is delicious, take it in moderation, or bad things will happen.

Background
Every now and then, characters grow tired of cream soda and coffee. They turn to other things, like tea, milk, or water. Or, they'll make something of their own.

Sockan Brand Cactus Extract was created in Freezeland in 2008, where the attitudes towards drinks that cause weird behavior are laxed, and where such regulations do not exist. An entrepenurial High Penguin with the ability to control water created the drink after extracting juice from an imported Large Cactus furniture item.

Combining the cactus juice with Cream Soda, sugar, and some other ingrediants produces SBCE. One Large Cactus can yield seven gallons of extract, which can be made into eight gallons of SBCE. It has proven to be very popular amongst High Penguins, though Lessers seem to shy away from it.

Ingredients
While the exact composition of Sockan Extract is unknown, this is the recipe that people managed to gather from lab analysis and word of mouth. SBCE is made in the gallon.

To make one gallon of Sockan Brand Cactus Extract, one needs these known ingrediants:
 * Three quarts of pure cactus juice.
 * Ten cups of sugar.
 * One pint of cream soda.
 * Eighteen cups of Soda Root.
 * Four cups of cinnamon.
 * Two pints of Ditto minus-X.

However, that isn't all that's in SBCE. That's just what's known. All that is known after the ingrediants is that water must be added until one gallon of mixture is attained. The gallon is to be stirred, then boiled for two hours (with regular stirring), then cooled overnight before being packaged into glass bottles.

Side effects
Sockan Brand Cactus Extract, however, comes with a very infamous side effect. Drinking too much SBCE causes temporary insanity, hallucinations commonly involving mushrooms or other fungi, odd dancing, random utterings, and an overall unstable state of mind which, strangely, also causes the drunkard to advertise the drink ("It will quench you!"). Creatures are urged to take SBCE in extreme moderation to avoid getting high on the drink. Other side effects include dilated pupils, fever-related sweating, and a high-pitched, delirious voice. (Creatures drunk on cactus juice are observed to have a moderate-grade fever.)

Why does Cactus Juice make this happen?
The material responsible enters the bloodstream within a short amount of time, first entering the brain. A chemical in the cactus juice called ditto minus-X (ditto plus, 25% more ditto A, 50% more X Virus and 5% more of a strange computer virus) sabotages the brain, first the cerebellum, then all over. It, in turn, causes those symptoms described above to occur.
