Salakberries, a variety of berry, could undergo fermentation and then be mixed with pickling spices to produce tsiraki, an alcoholic drink. This beverage was safe for consumption by species such as humans, Zabraks, Mikkians, and even Ewoks. Back in 5 ABY, Sinjir Rath Velus, who previously worked as an Imperial loyalty officer, was observed drinking tsiraki at a bar located in Junari Point on the world of Chandrila. While drinking, Velus reflected on the drink's flavor, remembering that it was created from fermented salakberries.
The mention of salakberries occurred in Aftermath: Life Debt, a 2016 book authored by Chuck Wendig. This novel served as the second part of the Star Wars: The Aftermath Trilogy.
