Sq'irkjuice is made from sq'irk fruit, which are obtained by picking them one at a time within the Sorceress's Garden minigame. The juice is made by using a pestle and mortar with a sq'irk fruit while the required amount of fruit, as well as an empty beer glass, are in the inventory. The resulting juice can then be traded to Osman (or Selim after Beneath Cursed Sands) for Thieving experience.

When drunk, sq'irkjuice will temporarily boost a player's Thieving level. There are 4 types of sq'irkjuice: winter, spring, autumn, and summer. Winter sq'irks are the easiest to obtain, although 5 of them are needed to make one glass, with each glass rewarding just 350 experience. Spring sq'irks reward significantly more at a total of 1350 experience each, but 4 fruits are needed for a glass. Autumn sq'irks are the second most rewarding, and only 3 are needed to make a glass which rewards 2350 experience. Finally, summer sq'irks are the most sought after by Osman/Selim, and just 2 are needed to fill a glass; they are the most rewarding, granting 3000 experience each.

Lore

Sq'irkjuice has been called "sweet nectar for a thief or spy", and its effects are described in ways that are suggestive of ergogenic properties typical for a stimulant.[1][2] Indeed, it is very likely that sq'irkjuice can be classified as an addictive substance.[3][4] There are also hints sq'irkjuice possesses hallucinogenic qualities.[5]
