A Stardrop is a special item that permanently increases the player's maximum energy by 34 points. The player must immediately consume any Stardrop as soon as it is obtained; it is impossible to add a Stardrop to the player inventory or save it to eat later.
A maximum of seven Stardrops are available in any game, which together result in 508 maximum energy, nearly doubling the initial value of 270.
Locations
One Stardrop can be obtained from each of the following sources:
- Sold for
2,000 at the Stardew Valley Fair. - Obtained from the treasure chest on floor 100 in The Mines.
- If you marry an NPC or have Krobus move in, received from your spouse or roommate when friendship level reaches 12.5 hearts; if you marry another player in multiplayer, a stardrop appears in a giftbox in front of the player when they enter their home after the wedding. You only get one spouse/roommate stardrop, regardless of divorce or remarriage.
- Sold by Krobus for
20,000g in the Sewers. - Obtained from Old Master Cannoli, in the Secret Woods, after giving him a Sweet Gem Berry.

Text
When consumed, one of two possible texts is displayed, both referencing the "Favorite Thing" set when creating a new profile:
- "It's strange, but the taste reminds you of [Favorite Thing]."
- "Your mind is filled with thoughts of [Favorite Thing]."
Secret Text
If the "Favorite Thing" is set to "ConcernedApe":
If the "Favorite Thing" is set to anything containing "Stardew":
- Note that the "S" in "Stardew" and the "C" and "A" in "ConcernedApe" must be capitalized.
Trivia
- Stardrops used to be called "Cosmic Fruit" in early versions of the game. (forum post)
- Willy mentions a Stardrop in his story at the Feast of the Winter Star. He says that some people claim the Stardrop is somehow connected to the Winter Star that is only visible from Stardew Valley.
- Prior to version 1.3.27 a Stardrop could be taken into inventory and then placed in a Chest, gifted (as a universally hated gift) or used in the Grange Display at the Stardew Valley Fair, or sold in the shipping bin. As of v1.3.27, a stardrop obtained using the item ID glitch can still be sold in the shipping bin in PC or mobile versions of the game.
