Black Myth: Wukong implements various upgrading elements whether it’s for health or other stats. The game uses interesting items like the Gourd to buff up your stats and give you a hand in how you’d like your combat style to go.
To survive tough battles against bosses, you’ll need an item that allows you to heal. That’s what drinks are for. We’ll tell you where you can find each special drink in the game.
All Drink Locations
There are 9 unique drinks spread out across various regions on the map. Finding all of them will unlock the “Brews and Barrels” achievement. The further you progress, the more drinks you unlock. Here are the locations of each drink you can find from each chapter.
Each location is explained in detail below.
Chapter 1: Black Wind Mountain
There is 1 drink available in Chapter 1.
Drink #1: Coconut Wine
This is the drink you obtain at the beginning of the game for free. The name of the wine changes as you upgrade it to “X-Year-Old Coconut Wine”. You can upgrade these using Awaken Wine Worms. The more you upgrade it, the higher the age that’s displayed in the name Wine. As a result, it restores more health per use.
You can upgrade your Drink at any point when you’ve collected enough Awaken Wine Worms. All you need to do is go to Shen Monkey Merchant from Chapter 1 Bamboo Grove in Marsh of White Mist.
Chapter 2: Yellow Wind Ridge
There is 1 more drink available in Chapter 2.
Drink #2: Lambbrew (Sandgate Village | Village Entrance)
The moment you start Chapter 2, go up the hill path that’s on your right. You’ll discover rat archers shooting in your direction. You’ll find this item at the end of the path in a small alter. This area is located before the “Village Entrance” shrine.
Chapter 3: The New West
There are 3 more drinks available in Chapter 3.
Drink #3: Pinebrew (Bamboo Grove | Marsh of White Mist)

Turn left from the shrine and look for the corner behind a stone pillar. You’ll need to reach the Towers of Karma Shrine. You can start from Forest of Felicity which is on the main story path and go past the gate in front of you.
