Mela Berry

Plentiful and rather sour, these berries can be found in many countries. Favored by the gods, insomniacs, and those with children who they wish to "pacify" (inebriate), these grape-sized fruits are alcoholic by nature, and a potent one at that.
A half berry makes for a fine and instantaneously alcoholic addition to nearly any drink, in addition to a hint of apple-ish taste.
A whole berry will make for a strong drink, the likes of which you would take your time nursing after a rough day's work.
Any more than a whole one and you start to get into the territory of homade brews, or quantities meant for bottles, pitchers, and barrels.
...no... seriously, unless you have an affinity for fire magic, don't eat more than 2. If you wield an affinity for fire, this is a food you should likely avoid, at least in conjunction with magic use for a half day.

Basic Information

Ecology and Habitats

Additional Information

Uses, Products & Exploitation

These fruits are used primarily in alcohol as the plants gain higher concentrations of alcohol as they mature and ripen.
Half of one of these berries can turn water into a light wine, and a whole one would make a glass of water a strong wine.

Geographic Origin and Distribution

Can be found in any tropical or subtropical climates. Can also be found growing near temples, churches, places of worship, and leylines affiliated with deities that like alcohol (which is most of them).
