Accurate recipes of Juices and Juice bugs!
« on: 2007 March 08, 22:26:04 »
THANKS THIS IS GREAT

Anyone has accurate juice recipe?
the one floating on the internet not really acurrate at all. only a few are actually acurate, many others are not.
like orangeade, can never figure out exactly how many oranges and lemons it takes.
the veggie coctail said needs 2 tomatos, 1 cucumber, 1 pepper and 3 beans, but after i made the juice i still get 2 beans and 1 tomato left.
i notice the fruits all have different qualities, which may be a factor, but so far i dont see how it is affecting the result.

Bug.
So far i found out that orangeade is not working at all, i got message say i got a badge but the sim don't actually get it.
tried on different sims and none of them working, wasted a lot of my oranges and lemons, is this a known issue or its just me.

Did you get this information from a guide on TSR, perchance?

And as for the orangeade, I never really understood it; I had one of my Sims drink it, but I didn't get a message claiming they received a badge or whatnot.  Undecided Eh.

Orangeade doesn't give badges outright, it adds points towards a random badge. Unless your Sim was already very close to having the next badge, you should only see the badge point increase over his/her head (like you would see if they were actually working on that badge).

Someone on S2C posted this from the Prima Guide. =)

Apple Juice (4 apples) - finish homework faster
Beauty cocktail (2 oranges, 1 cucumber) - love potion
Eggplant juice (1 eggplant) - random skill points
Lemonade (4 lemons) - cools sims down
Orange juice (4 oranges) - cures colds
Orangeade (3 oranges, 1 lemon) - random badge points
Pepper Punch (1 pepper, 4 pole beans, 2 apples) - energy boost
Pureed boot (1 boot) - freak out (sim does random animations), no hunger satisfaction
Strawberry juice (6 strawberries) - clears furious bit
Tomato juice (3 tomatoes) - warms sims up
Vegetable cocktail (2 tomatoes, 1 cucumber, 1 pepper, 3 pole beans) - builds skills faster


PS. For the orangeade to work the Sim must have at least a bronze badge in one talent.

Some of the recipes in the Prima guide appear to be incorrect. I tried 4 lemons to make lemonade and it didn't work. I only had the options to remove the produce or stock more. It actually took 6 lemons to make one serving of lemonade. I haven't tried with the other recipes yet to see how accurate they are. It's not surprising though, the previous Prima guides do have their share of errors. I don't know if it would be an error on the part of the Prima folks or if it's due to the Maxoids making changes afterward.

The actual  recipes are:
apple juice - 3 apples (faster homework)
beauty cocktail - 2 oranges, 2 cucumbers (love potion)
eggplant juice - 2 eggplants (random skill points)
lemonade - 6 lemons (cools sims down)
orange juice - 6 oranges (cures colds)
orangeade - 4 oranges, 2 lemons (random badge points)
pepper punch - 2 peppers, 1 polebeans, 1 apple (energy boost)
strawberry juice - 3 strawberries (clears furious bit)
strawberry lemonade - 2 lemons, 2 strawberries (platinum mood)
tomato juice - 3 tomatoes (warms sims up)
vegetable cocktail - 1 tomato, 1 cucumber, 1 pepper, 1 polebeans (build skills faster)
The Prima guide also says you only need 3 times the ingredients to serve juice (6 servings).  This is also inaccurate, you actually need 6 times the ingredients.

Baaaaa *presses thanks*

This seems right. I've known that the recipes were wrong, but wasn't paying close enough attention to remember the right ones. And I could never get it to SERVE the stuff.

Katatonic's list is the correct one. pioupiou in the "Odd things I noticed about Seasons" thread posted with the same #'s.  And in the playing i've done I also get those #'s.  pioupiou also mentioned that it's 6x each ingredient to get the serve juice option.

Here is the list pioupiou posted. It also lists the amount needed for "serve juice" option...

Is there any point to putting fruit and vegies in the fridge?  The option is there to stock them, but you can't seem to remove them later, or make anything from them that I have noticed yet.

Glitch?

Stocking a fridge with them gives "Fresh produce" points that apparently makes food sparkly and worth more hunger value.

Why fresh vegetables can make pork chops better is a mystery I really don't want to know the answer to, lest I become physically ill.

I noticed there's an option under Dessert called Berry Pie, maybe that is new? My sims never get to eat dessert, so I really can't tell if it's new or not. I noticed it when I was looking for recipies that involved the fruit I just stocked my fridge with...

Those recipes are not right either... Here are the ones I personally confirmed in my own game:

Before slash is a single recipe, after slash is a serve recipe.

Apple Juice- 4 apples / 18 apples
Beauty Cocktail- 2 oranges, 1 cucumber / Could not find a serve recipe
Eggplant- 2 Eggplant / 12 Eggplant
Lemonade- 6 Lemons / 12 Lemons
Orange Juice- 6 Oranges / Could not find a serve recipe (I tried up to 21 oranges!)
Orangeade- 4 Oranges, 2 Lemons / 12 Oranges, 3 Lemons
Pepper Punch- 2 Peppers, 4 beans, 2 apples / Serve recipe not found
Strawberry Juice- 6 Strawberries / 18 Strawberries
Strawberry Lemonade- 3 Lemons, 2 strawberries / 9 Lemons, 6 Strawberries
Tomato Juice- 3 tomatoes / 9 tomatoes
Vegatable Cocktail- 2 tomatoes, 1 cucumber, 1 Pepper, 3 Beans / Serve recipe not found.

Some of them required so much produce I gave up before finding a recipe for serve.

You don't get a BADGE, you get badge POINTS. Little plus signs with the badge by your sims head when they are skilling up on badges? Those things.

Yep, badge points, not to be confuddled with actual badges.

On the other hand, you get skills, and not skillpoints when you drink the eggplant juice....

I disagree with the recipe posted by persephone (see the bold text)
From my testings in game :

Apple Juice- 3 apples / 18 apples
Beauty Cocktail- 2 oranges, 2 cucumbers / 12 oranges, 12 cucumbers
Eggplant- 2 Eggplant / 12 Eggplants
Lemonade- 6 Lemons / 36 Lemons
Orange Juice- 6 Oranges / 36 oranges
Orangeade- 4 Oranges, 2 Lemons / 24 Oranges, 12 Lemons
Pepper Punch- 2 Peppers, 1 bean, 1 apple / 12 peppers, 6 beans, 6 apples
Strawberry Juice- 3 Strawberries / 18 Strawberries
Strawberry Lemonade- 2 Lemons, 2 strawberries / 12 Lemons, 12 Strawberries
Tomato Juice- 6 tomatoes / 36 tomatoes
Vegatable Cocktail- 1 tomato, 1 cucumber, 1 Pepper, 1 Bean / 6 tomatoes, 6 cucumbers, 6 peppers, 6 beans

Seems like the serving is always 6 times the single juice.
I don't know if the quality of the vegetables and fruits plays a role. The testing was done with the best qualities (mouthwatering ?? I'm playing the game in french)

Other people disagree too, even though I have tried out each recipe adding produce one by one until the option comes up.  It leads me to beleive there might be some unknown variable in that juicemaking or some sort of bug.  I'd love to know why it takes more produce for my sims to make the recipes than others do.

Why fresh vegetables can make pork chops better is a mystery I really don't want to know the answer to, lest I become physically ill.

I assume that Sims' environment is hightly radioactive, hence the sparkling in food. Stocking pork chops in the same location means that they became radioactive too.
This may explain also why they die in a very short time (maybe Elixir of Life is a chemio... who knows?  Grin).

Most of the meat dishes in the game are served with vegetable sides. I would imagine that is the cause of the sparklies.

I'm not sure of the exact calculation (looks complicated), but you can achieve three different intensities of juice. Generally, you can expect nothing from low, a moderate effect from medium, and a strong effect from high intensity.
