A Spoonful of Whiskey

A Spoonful of Whiskey is a Fallout 3 quest that is added to the game with the Point Lookout add-on.

Walkthrough
Marguerite will try and convince you that she is sick, and she needs these items to get better. With medicine and speech she will admit she makes moonshine and ask you to gather these items for caps as well as a share of the moonshine.

You need
 * 3 yeast.
 * 6 fission batteries.
 * Either 10 refined punga fruit or 20 wild punga fruit.

The required items will total a massive 72 lbs with refined punga fruit, or 82 lbs if you're carrying wild punga fruit.

Since carrying all of the items at once may prove troublesome, you can drop the items in her kitchen as you collect them and retrieve them later once you have them all.

The best place to find the required amount of both yeast and fission batteries is the panic room under Calvert Mansion, though it is only accessible if you've completed the Thought Control quest. If you haven't, then head over to Blackhall Manor, which holds plenty of yeast, and reportedly 6 fission batteries, though some scrupulous scavenging is required to find all 6. Yeast and batteries can also be found in Trapper's Shack, and exactly 6 batteries and 3 yeasts are located at Turtledove Detention Camp.

As for the punga fruit, a ridiculous amount of refined punga fruit can be found at the Ark & Dove Cathedral, though you must complete the Walking with Spirits quest in order to access the church. If you haven't completed the quest, then plenty of wild punga fruits can be found at Grower's shack. Of course, wild punga can be found all around the island, so it won't take you long to collect the required amount.


 * If you want to do the quest fast you can buy 20 wild punga fruit from Tobar at the Point Lookout Pier. (Not recommended for you won't make a very good profit.)
 * Haley usually stocks multiple fission batteries.

Rewards
You will receive 300 caps and six moonshine. You can also repair her still for good Karma or an additional 100 caps (200 with a speech check).

Behind the scenes

 * The practice of adding battery acid to moonshine is intended to make it taste more alcoholic than it actually is. It does not actually improve the finished product, and can, in fact, make it dangerous to consume.
 * The original draft of this quest had the player bringing in an additional 24 bottles of purified water to help brew the moonshine. This can be seen on the GECK's list of quest entries.
