Beckett Mariner with a bottle of Romulan whiskey
Romulan whiskey was a blue alcoholic beverage of Romulan origin.
In 2380, this whiskey was available at Starfleet's Douglas Station despite being against Starfleet regulations. Ensign Beckett Mariner obtained a bottle of it there and drank it aboard the USS Cerritos during her shore leave, and mused to Brad Boimler that he probably expected it to be green.

After Boimler transferred to the USS Titan later that year, his friends stashed the bottle of Romulan whiskey on his former bunk along with various other items. (LD: "Strange Energies")

Background information[]
The creators of Lower Decks consulted with linguist Trent Pehrson, who had created the Romulan language heard and seen in Star Trek: Picard, to create a name for Romulan whiskey. Pehrson decided that while Romulans call Terran (Earth) whiskey WesKih, the beverage Mariner was drinking was MelShat, "a Romulan spirit distilled from a dried, aged Romulan grain known as GenMat."
