Hyperdrive (Punch It!) was a non-alcoholic, carbonated beverage with berry and fruit flavors. The teal and red punch originated in the casinos of Canto Bight on the desert world Cantonica, where it was consumed by tired gamblers to replenish their energy. In 34 ABY, it was served at Oga's Cantina in Black Spire Outpost on the planet Batuu. The Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs included a recipe for the drink in his cookbook The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook.
Hyperdrive (Punch It!) was a non-alcoholic beverage found at drinking establishments in the galaxy. The carbonated punch blended teal-colored berry juices and flavors with crushed ice and a red fruit purée that was poured on top and sank to the bottom of its container. Suitable for humans to drink, the beverage replenished energy when it was consumed. The drink shared its name with the hyperdrives that enabled starships to reach lightspeed along with the phrase "punch it" used by their pilots as an instruction to engage the hyperdrive.
The punch originated in the casinos of Canto Bight on the desert world Cantonica, where it was a popular beverage that assisted gamblers with staying awake to continue gambling until they ran out of credits. In 34 ABY, it was served in Black Spire Outpost on the Outer Rim planet Batuu at Oga's Cantina, an establishment that used a hyperdrive to supply power. During that time, host Palob Godalhi of the Black Spire Outpost radio station BSO 401.72 sometimes told listeners they should visit the cantina and order the beverage.
In 34 ABY, after the Battle of Takodana, Artiodac chef Strono Tuggs published his cookbook The Official Black Spire Outpost Cookbook and included a recipe for the beverage, which he enjoyed drinking for its bold flavor and its energizing effects. He compared its ability to provide energy with a hypothetical digestible version of coaxium, a form of hypermatter used as fuel for hyperdrives. Around the same time, Tuggs included his cookbook's recipe for the punch in a small pamphlet of recipes meant to help a Batuu visitor learn more about the planet.
