'''Chuckola Cola''' is a soft drink made from [[Chuckola Fruit]] that is popular throughout both the [[Mushroom Kingdom]] and [[Beanbean Kingdom]]. Since in the Japanese version of ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' the beverage was an alcoholic cocktail, during the English localization it was changed so it was rather a ''cola''.<ref name"DiMarcoessay">Francesca Di Marco.

==History==
===''Mario & Luigi'' series===
====''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''====
Chuckola Cola is found in [[Chucklehuck Woods]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|its remake]]. There is another rare variety called [[Chuckola Reserve]], which is needed to cure [[Queen Bean]] after she is infected by a [[Belly Blech|Belly Blech Worm]]. Although actual bottles of Chuckola Cola are seen very rarely in ''Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga'', several were seen in the [[S.S. Chuckola]], an ancient boat bound to ship Chuckola Cola across the world.

====''Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time''====
Chuckola Cola (as well as Chuckola Fruit) is given a cameo appearance in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time]]'', where it appeared alongside [[Prince Peasley]] on a poster in [[Princess Peach's Castle]]'s [[Shroom Shop]].

===''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''===
In ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'', [[Admiral Bobbery]] wants a drink as his last request. When [[Mario]] asks [[Flavio]] about it, Flavio agrees to give it to Mario, but only if he could give him something in return. Mario gives Flavio a coconut and then gives the drink to Bobbery. Bobbery then joins Mario in his quest.

Said drink, a red wine named "Vintage Red" in the Japanese version, was changed to a purple drink that was named differently in the various Western localizations, being given the name "Chuckola Cola" in the English one. As a result of them not being related except in the English localization, there are some appearance inconsistencies with Chuckola Cola between ''Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga'' and ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door''. The Chuckola Cola was bottled similarly in both games, but it was colored differently: the ''Mario & Luigi'' variant was blue (but known to be red when seen en masse) and had a pink label while the ''Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door'' cola was purple with a yellow label. Furthermore, as a result of the changes during localization, Bobbery's last wish is much more poignant in the Japanese version: scarlet wine in memory of [[List of implied characters#Scarlette|Scarlette]]. This is retained in the Spanish version, where Bobbery asks for "bombioja" in honor of "Bombaret,"<ref>FatalRagnarok (July 20, 2015).
