All drinks require fermenting. Place a cauldron over fire (or lava), fill it with water and place the ingredients inside. Wait the needed amount of time (you can check this by right clicking the cauldron with a clock). Right click it with empty bottles when its cooked long enough (3 bottles per batch).

Not all drinks require this step. This is done by placing the drinks in a brewing stand with glowstone at the top box and fueled by blaze powder. The drinks will stop automatically when they've run through all of the distillation runs that they need to.

Not all drinks require this step. This can be made by placing the drinks into barrels. Barrels can be made by placing blocks in the style of either of the pictures shown below (the larger one stores more drinks) and typing "Barrel" onto the top lign of a sign. A message in chat will confirm that you've made the barrel. The type of wood used on the barrel can also effect the quality of the alcohol it outputs in some cases. Once every in-game day, the drinks will age by one year. You can check on them occassionally, and the colors will indicate when they're about to be ready. Some drinks may require just distilling, just aging, or both. Listed below are just a few of the many drinks you can create.
