The Shake Drink emote is a perpetual emote, meaning that it doesn’t end until you move or do something to interrupt it. It’s not just visual, either, as long as the emote is being performed, a shaki꧒ng sound will accompany the movement. 

This is a particularly exciting emote for those who dip into the FFXIV Roleplay community, partic꧃ularly those who partake in the nightlife scene. It adds a new level of realism to the bars and clubs frequented by players and it is a welcome surprise for this patch.

If you want to get the Shake Drink emote, you’ll need to visit the Vegas of Eorzea — The Gold Saucer. When you get there, head to the “Gold Saucer Attendant <Prize Clai𓄧m>” NPC and select the “Registerable Miscellany” option to find a list of emotes, hairstyles, mounts, and minions. 

Scroll down a little until you find an item called “Ballroom Etiquette – Fancy Beverages”. This is the item you need to purchase to unlock the Shake Drink emote, and it will cost you 50,000 MGP

Once you’ve purchased it, use it from within your inventory by right-clicking on it and pressing “Use”, and then you can uᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚse the emote in one of two ways.
