- "Complete with seeds from fruit imported directly from Endor, the drink conjures up memories of my own travels to the world of the Ewoks."
- ―Eloc Throno, Traveler's Guide to Batuu
Yub Nub was an orange-colored, fruity alcoholic beverage served at Oga's Cantina in Black Spire Outpost on the Outer Rim planet Batuu[1] in 34 ABY.[3] The cocktail was named after the Ewokese word for "freedom," and it included seeds from imported Endorian fruit.[2] Suitable for human consumption, the drink was served in a cup that depicted Ewoks,[1] a species native to the forest moon of Endor,[4] and their participation in the Battle of Endor. The coaster that accompanied the drink had an illustration of one of the furry beings.[1] That year,[5] in his book Traveler's Guide to Batuu, author and explorer Eloc Throno wrote that Yub Nub was his favorite cocktail at Oga's Cantina and that it reminded him of his travels on the Ewok homeworld.[2]

- ↑ Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: Traveler's Guide to Batuu establishes that at the time of the book's setting the Resistance was based on Batuu. Star Wars: Timelines dates both the establishment of the Batuu Resistance base and its eventual relocation to Ajan Kloss to 34 ABY. Therefore, the in-universe guide must have been authored that year.
