How to Find Perk-a-Cola in MW3 Zombies (MWZ)
In MW3 Zombies, Perk-a-Colas are found in Perk-a-Cola Machines, just like in the good ol’ days. The locations of Perk-a-Cola Machines (or Perk Machines) are randomized every match, but the TacMap always displays where you can find them.
If you’re low on Essence, Reward Rifts at the end of contracts often contain a random can of Perk-a-Cola. The Random Perk power-up also gives you, fittingly, a random perk. You can also craft individual Perk-a-Colas in the Gear menu before deployment.

How to Craft Perk-a-Cola in Modern Warfare 3 Zombies
To craft Perk-a-Cola in MWZ, follow these steps:
- Open the Gear tab
- Select Add Item in your Rucksack
- Select Schematic Crafting
- Choose the Perk-a-Cola you want to craft
You can also craft Aetherium, Ammo Mods, and Wonder Weapons in the Schematic Crafting tab if you’ve extracted their recipes.
Like a certain other cola company, Perk-a-Cola keeps its recipes well-guarded. You need to find or earn Perk-a-Cola Schematics before you can craft them.
How to Find Perk-a-Cola Schematics
Perk-a-Cola Schematics, along with Aetherium and Ammo Mod Schematics, have a slim chance of dropping from Reward Rifts. For example, the Speed Cola recipe has a chance to drop from Reward Rifts at the end of Tier 1 contracts. A couple of Schematics are also given as rewards from Story Missions.
Here’s the full list of Perk-a-Cola Schematics and their locations in MW3 Zombies:
| Perk-a-Cola Recipe | Schematic Location |
|---|---|
| Deadshot Daiquiri Schematic | Tier 1 Contract |
| Death Perception Schematic | Act 3 Mission reward |
| Elemental Pop Schematic | Tier 3 Contract |
| Jugger-Nog Schematic | Tier 2 Contract |
| PHD Flopper Schematic | Tier 2 Contract |
| Quick Revive Schematic | Act 1 Mission reward |
| Speed Cola Schematic | Tier 1 Contract |
| Stamin-Up Schematic | Tier 1 Contract |
| Tombstone Soda Schematic | Tier 3 Contract |
You can use Perk-a-Cola Schematics every three hours to create a specific can to store in your backpack. No crafting materials are involved, so who knows how they’re made? Or what they taste like.
