For anyone attempting to craft the useful item, Rad Ant Lager, in Fallout 76 for your use or the Wasted on Alcohol quest, the main ingredient is Rad Ant Meat. You can harvest this meat from giant ants found all over the game, and you can find them in many places. These locations vary in difficulty, and it never hurts to breed these ants if you can regularly reboot the server and set up a CAMP nearby.
There is also no distinct name you are looking for. There are many types of named ants in the game, such as deadly growing ant, deadly soldier ant, poisonous glowing ant, scorched ant, or overgrown forager ant. It doesn't matter what type of ant you are looking for, as they all offer a good chunk of ant meat, which is what you need to make the Rad Ant Lager.
Here are the separate locations where you can find them:
- Antiquities of the Appalachians
- Camp Adams
- Dolly Sods wilderness
- Fort Defiance
- Caves de Hopewell
- Mine the Lucky Hole
- Monongah MZ-03 substation
- The giant teapot
- Thunder Mountain Substation TM-02
- Watoga High School
Your best course of action to reliably cultivate these monstrous ants is to visit the southeastern part of the map. You can regularly browse Appalachian Antiquities, Fort Defiance, Lucky Hole Mine, Thunder Mountain Substation, and Watoga High School. You can find these locations in the South East, and if you set up a CAMP closer to the South, you can go through them all and return to your CAMP.
Ant meat is probably the most difficult ingredient to find in this recipe. Once you have all of your ingredients, return to your camp to make the drink, and you will have completed the daily quest, and you can also keep some for yourself if you need to drink.
