Spiced wine was a type of wine potable by Zabraks^[1] and Dowutin.^[2] When the beverage was served at Keem family gatherings during the High Republic Era, the adults present would become inebriated and sing long Zabrak love ballads.^[1] In 232 BBY,^[3] the Nihil Tempest Runner Pan Eyta had a goblet of spiced wine in the Great Hall of the Nihil, the marauder group's No-Space headquarters. Eyta led a toast to honor the Eye of the Nihil Marchion Ro by brandishing his goblet to a crowd of Nihil before imbibing its contents swiftly, with some wine splashing on the floor.^[2]

In 229 BBY,^[4] the Nihil recruit Driggit Parse apprehended the aspiring pirate Zyle Keem on the Outer Rim planet Valo for being out past curfew. To escape from her, Keem began attempting to annoy her by speaking obnoxiously about obscure topics in their life, including how the adults at their Iridonian Zabrak family's gatherings would become drunk on spiced wine and sing.^[1]
