Notes

  • Could be bought at The Crimbo Cafe for 100 meat, but was instantly drunk when purchased.
  • Can be bought at the Crimborg Nutrition Station for 100 meat, but is instantly drunk when purchased.
  • When this drink was introduced in 2005 it was the only drink to give exactly 5 drunkenness. The 2006 Crimboween festivities have added two more: gin and hot choculate.

References

  • The name is a pun (try saying it aloud) referring to Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker Suite.
  • The line about the sugarplums is a reference to "Twas The Night Before Christmas" where the author states that "the children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of sugarplums danced in their heads."
  • The addition of a "tastes like chicken" clause in the 2006 version refers to the movie The Matrix, which explained the resemblance of many meats to chicken as a lack of imagination by the machine creators of the virtual world (like the virtual Crimbo Cafe).
