Pep Brew[1], also known as Energy Drink[2][3][4][5][6], Pep Drink[7], Health Drink[8], Power Drink[9], Peppy Tonic[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 an energy drink contained in a yellow 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

Pep Brew is the 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; Pep Brew's recovery is scaled to half in that game mode. Also, in Kirby Air Ride, Pep Brew heals 70 hit points instead of one-third of the maximum.
