The Sims 3 Nectar Making Guide
List of Nectar Making Recipes and Blends
Not all fruit combinations work well together when making Nectar in the Sims 3. You may try every single blend to discover that a recipe involving this and that fruit is just impossible. Adding a third ingredient may increase the value of a bottle by making it taste better, but you don't seem to be rewarded for complexity. There are so many combinations that tracking down multi-ingredient nectars is tough.
Contrary to popular belief as per the prima strategy guide, it does matter how the fruits taste together. You can make perfect nectar that is worth $200, but if the fruits are rare and the taste is great (both factored together) you can begin to push toward $500 a bottle and possibly beyond. So start with the basic combinations that require low level gardening then work your way up to using perfect quality uncommon, rare, and special ingredients. A dash of a low level ingredient may set off some other combination and produce a great tasting nectar, so experimentation is key! Share your recipes at our Forum's Nectar Making Thread.
When crafting your own recipes keep in mind that just because one blend of two ingredients tastes bad doesn't mean they can never go together in a recipe. You like a dash of this, a dash of that in your food, so it's not surprising that Sims often like their nectar that way! So try, try again, but mind your fruit stocks!
If you want to use Sims 3 Cheats to unlock fruit, it is possible. Open the cheats console, type testingcheatsenabled true, followed by buydebug Used in conjunction you'll be able to access the special menu under sort by function in buy mode. Simply click the (?) section and proceed to place plant spawners on your lot. Many will start with fruit, to make this an even sweeter for the frustrated/cheaters out there.
