Being stuck inside a transporter buffer left Scotty with a powerful thirst, and he found solace in a bottle of real Aldebaran whiskey, which he proceeded to polish off on the holodeck, with a little help from Picard.
Whether it be Saurian Brandy or the dreaded Romulan Ale, Captain Kirk prefers drinks that would scandalize his fellow officers and put him at odds with Federation rules. Given Kirk's status as the pioneer of “cowboy diplomacy,” his preference for illegal beverages makes sense.
Do you know what Worf's favorite drink from Star Trek is? Prune Juice. In a handful of TNG episodes, the exact names escape me, Worf was drawn to Prune Juice, calling it “a warriors drink” when he first tried it at Guinans suggestion.
That was a bottle of Glenfiddich 30 served by Dr McCoy to Captain Kirk in the 2016 movie, Star Trek Beyond. Dark, and fuzzy, the scene may not have paid off for the Scottish brand as fans may not have clicked quite so readily which whisky their heroes were drinking in the shot.
What is Captain Janeway's drink of choice on Star Trek Voyager?
Everyone knows Captain Jean-Luc Picard's (Patrick Stewart) favorite tea: “Earl Grey, hot”. Captain Katherine Janeway (Kate Mulgrew) loves coffee so much that she orders the crew to plow into an organic nebula to find some.
Regarding the origin of the term, there is no definable connection to the “Star Trek” franchise, despite the name. As stated, the term “borg” is short for “blackout rage gallon.” Some people do, however, cosplay while drinking borg drinks.

Bloodwine was a popular alcoholic beverage among the Klingons, best served warm. As with many Klingon foods and beverages, it was not for the faint of heart. Bloodwine was known to be highly intoxicating, to the point that most non-Klingons were scarcely capable of tolerating it; it was twice as potent as whiskey.
Starfleet Officers did regularly discuss bathing in the various Star Trek series, and they often spoke of sonic showers, technology that used pulse vibrations instead of water for bathing.

The Star Trek Encyclopedia (4th ed., vol. 1, p. 426) described bloodwine as a variety of red Klingon wine. Whether there is actual blood in the ingredients has never been revealed; however, the Star Trek Cookbook suggests that bloodwine is made of fermented blood and sugar.
The inspiration for this recipe comes from my love of sci-fi. I'm a Star Trek: The Next Generation nerd, and a big fan of Patrick Stewart.

Picard was under severe emotional distress, but the crew was unwilling to call him out on it - except for Worf. When he expressed his concerns to Picard, he was called a coward - a huge insult in Klingon culture. Worf became visibly angry, and told Picard he would have killed him if he had been anyone else.
