Oratay

Oratay was a substance that members of the Bith species enjoyed drinking in a slurry form. The New Republic pilot Norra Wexley noticed an elderly Bith couple drinking on their home's rooftop on the planet Akiva, and assumed they were drinking oratay slurry due to the species love of the beverage. The couple then stopped drinking the slurry when a Imperial TIE/LN starfighter flew overhead, standing to fire at the starfighter with a blaster rifle and shout insults in their native tongue.

Behind the scenes
Oratay first appeared in the Star Wars Legends comic book Star Wars: X-Wing Rogue Squadron 2: The Rebel Opposition, Part 2, which was written by Michael A. Stackpole and Mike Baron and released in 1995. The substance was canonized by the novel Aftermath, which was written by Chuck Wendig and released in 2015.
