wejpuH... (probably the most unused word out there, i had to give it credit.)
Doqqu'lu'chugh, 'e'be'lu' 'Iw tlhIngan. (If it is red, it is not klingon blood.)
That brings up another idea of mine... is 'e'lu' even correct? Perhaps i should just use a noun intead... lol

Domestic {HIq} is distilled from a number of different kinds of grain
({tIr}), with some additional constituents (of both plant and animal
origin, including {'Iw}, "blood") adding flavor and strength. {'Iw HIq}
(bloodwine) is served warm to hot (best is {porgh Hat} - "body tempera-
ture", though it is not clear whose body) and should be very dark red
in color. [...] Animal blood ({'Iw}) is found primarily in alcoholic
beverages, but the milk ({nIm}) of some creatures (such as the {targh}
[targ]) is combined with other ingredients to form drinks of rather
complex flavor, though it is seldom consumed by itself. (KGT 95)
The question now becomes: What kind of blood do Klingons use in
bloodwine? Maltz should know. If we lucky, he's what the Klingons call a
{'Iw HIq pIn}, or somebody who knows all about bloodwine (slang: literally
"bloodwine boss").
