Zalag's Soup

Zalag's Soup is an obscure alcoholic beverage consumed in parts of Grandfolk. Despite its exotic-sounding name, it is actually simply a type of mulled mead that is flavored with lemons prior to fermentation, then spiced with various mulling spices. The recipe is a secret held by the Brotherhood of the Dark Moon - according to legends, there once was an assassin of peasant origins who joined the brotherhood, and once too old to kill, he retired and became the inn's wine-brewer, inventing this recipe.
