Moogan Tea

Moogan Tea was a beverage that was popular throughout the Outer Rim. It was brewed daily at drinking establishments using a spiced syrup or tea concentrate. The drink was sweet, spicy, and frothy. When the Commerce Guild took control of its planet of origin, Mooga, they trademarked the recipe and gave it the name Ardees Beverage. Various businesses defied the legal claim that Moogan Tea was a proprietary recipe and continued to brew and serve it, albeit more discreetly.

In 19 BBY, during the Clone Wars, a cantina in Black Spire Outpost on Batuu, later known as Oga's Cantina, offered alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions of the tea. That same year, a cantina on the Core Worlds planet Coruscant served the tea. Oga's Cantina still served the non-alcoholic version in 34 ABY when the Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs published his recipes for Moogan Spice Syrup and the drink made from it in his cookbook The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook.
