Nuka-Cola Quantum

Nuka-Cola Quantum is a beverage produced by the United States Nuka-Cola Corporation. The radioactive soft drink was initially created in 2076 and later released in the fourth quarter of 2077.

Background
Nuka-Cola Quantum was first created during work on Project Cobalt, utilizing a custom isotope of strontium-90 dubbed "Quantum". While intended for use in the United States' military arsenal, lead scientist Rex Meacham suggested using it in the next Nuka-Cola flavor. Under supervision and inspections from the Food and Drug Association, it was introduced to the public in the fourth quarter of 2077 as a brand-new flavor with the tagline of "Twice the calories, twice the carbohydrates, twice the caffeine, and twice the taste!" The flavor was only produced in their plant in Washington, D.C. under the codename "Sea-Lion".

Nuka-Cola Quantum can be found in the Capital Wasteland, the Divide, the Commonwealth, Nuka-World, and Appalachia.

The drink appears to adversely affect mirelurks, causing a transformation into the glowing blue Nukalurk. It is known to also affect radstagss.

Characteristics
Nuka-Cola Quantum is a glowing blue liquid stored in a clear glass bottle. In Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas, the label and glow are the only defining features. In Fallout 4 and Fallout 76, the bottle now has fins on the bottom, resembling a bomb or a mini nuke. The label is more customized and unique, showing a purple night sky with stars and planets.
