* [[Jalara Fire]]: A Betazoid, alcoholic beverage made from the luciferase from an insect indigenous to the Jalaran Jungles.

Finally, the drink will cause the lips and mouth to emit a soft purple/pink glow. | * [[Jalara Fire]]: A Betazoid, alcoholic beverage made from the luciferase from an insect indigenous to the Jalaran Jungles.
