Energy Drink,^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] also known as Pep Brew,^[6] Pep Drink,^[7] Peppy Tonic,^[8] Health Drink,^[9] Power Drink,^[10] or Life Drink,^[11] is a recurring recovery item in almost every title in the Kirby series, first appearing in Kirby's Dream Land. It is contained in a yellow (previously pink) bottle that can be found in various locations on the field. In Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, it sometimes appears in small Treasure Chests.

A drink with a somewhat similar appearance is shown in the Kirby: Right Back at Ya! episode Power Ploy.

Use

Energy Drinks are usually third best recovery item, recovering one-third or two bars of Kirby's Health instantly, in contrast to regular food, which restores half this amount. Meat recovers one-half, while Maxim Tomatoes always fully recover Kirby's HP.

There are a few known exceptions to this rule, however. In Kirby's Adventure and Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land’s Extra Game, where Kirby's vitality is halved, Energy Drink's recovery is scaled to half in that game mode. In Kirby Air Ride, Energy Drinks heal 70 HP instead of one-third of the maximum.
