To complete the “Drown Your Sorrows” achievement in World of Warcraft, you’ll have to sample 10 different drinks introduced during the Cataclysm expansion. The achievement, while straightforward, does require you to take a trip around Azeroth and check off some boxes on a shopping list. Unfortunately, the drinks you have to sample to complete the achievement are found in different locations around the world, meaning you’ll have to invest a bit of time into this achievement.

You won’t need to consume an inordinate number of the drinks to complete Drown Your Sorrows. Just consuming one of each will be enough to give you credit toward the achievement. In total, you’ll have to head to four different locations to get all 10 drinks in your inventory and ultimately complete the achievement.
