How about a small beer? This is a weakly alcoholic beer and I imagine
it can be made with the materials of a dark beer. Any of your local
brewers who brew other beers should be able make this and another
advantage is that it should be quick to make.

Although made in period as the second run, I suspect it could be made
today by watering down the beer syrups? which a lot of folks use
instead of starting with actual grain.
You would have to do this without using official SCA funds. Perhaps
the Queen will like this, and of course if the Queen likes it, so
will a number of others, and maybe you could replace your kingdom's
tea flavored sugar water over time.:-)
