Alright, thought it might be nice to start trying to get a list of various drow and elf (and possibly other races) foods and drink going. Because I want to put this up on the temple I ask that with every names you post here you also post a link to your sources (or a reference if you get it out of a book). Let's see how many we can find. 
I'll start the list off with a few drinks I've found with some Internet searches. Not sure how official they are, but there you go.
From [url=http://www.grey-company.org/TelRuid/rp/ ... s:2rrx5f7b]The Grey Company[/url:2rrx5f7b]:
[b:2rrx5f7b]Saerloonian Glowfire[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Pale wine, luminous, taste reminiscent of pears.
[b:2rrx5f7b]Saerloonian Topaz[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Yellow amber wine w/ nutty quality and bold fruit overtones.
[b:2rrx5f7b]Mead[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Sweet wine of fermented honey.
[b:2rrx5f7b]Elverquisst[/b:2rrx5f7b] - A ruby-colored liquor magically distilled from sunshine and rare summer fruits. Utterly smooth, the liquor is nonetheless flecked with gold and has an iridescence of both COLOR and flavor. It is highly prized at all times, but in the autumn rituals it is savored as if it is the gift of one final, perfect summer day.
[b:2rrx5f7b]Evermead[/b:2rrx5f7b] - THE elven mead, imported from evermeet. The one to which all others are compared and found wanting.
[b:2rrx5f7b]Clarry[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Table wine blend sweetened w/ honey and spices.
[b:2rrx5f7b]Arabellan Dry[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Fine red wine, very dry woodsy overtones and a slight berry taste.
[b:2rrx5f7b]Berdruskan Dark[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Heavy sweet and burning, almost black, HIGH alcohol content.
[b:2rrx5f7b]Morimatra[/b:2rrx5f7b] - A spiced wine favored by the Drow.
From [url=http://www.eilistraee.com/cgi-bin/yabb/ ... 2:2rrx5f7b]Delve into the Drow[/url:2rrx5f7b] (original article seems to be gone):
[b:2rrx5f7b]Qilovestualt[/b:2rrx5f7b] - A drow wine.
From [url=http://library.shadowsbelow.com/noframe ... l:2rrx5f7b]Shadows Below[/url:2rrx5f7b]:
[b:2rrx5f7b]Ulaver[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Luminous green (drow?) wine.
From [url=http://darkelf.org/bliss_bringer.html:2rrx5f7b]Darkelf.org[/url:2rrx5f7b]:
[b:2rrx5f7b]Viwagri[/b:2rrx5f7b] - A dark and expensive (drow?) wine brewed only during the third cycle of each year.
From [url=http://www.eilistraee.com/chosen/langua ... w:2rrx5f7b]the drow dictionary[/url:2rrx5f7b]:
[b:2rrx5f7b]Jhinrae[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Drow word for "wine".
[b:2rrx5f7b]Vlo'jihnrae[/b:2rrx5f7b] - Drow bloodwine.
Alright, let's see if we can find any more.
