To cause Death by Beetle Juice in The Sims 4, make beetle juice at the bar and have your Sim drink three glasses of juice in a row. This will instantly turn them into a ghost.
Your Sim needs to be a Level 10 Mixologist to be able to make beetle juice.
You need the following ingredients to make this potentially deadly juice: beetle nuggets, 1 carrot, 1 mushroom, 1 potato, 1 tomato, a bunch of spinach, 1 avocado, 1 False Morel mushroom, and 1 Kava root.
As you can see, those bugs that you keep in the insect farms are pretty versatile. You can use them to make compost, eco-friendly fuel, and cook meat-free dishes.
You can even make juice from insect nuggets. However, drinking beetle juice will make your Sims Uncomfortable.
As a quick reminder, this death scenario came with Eco-Lifestyle.
How to revive a Sim that died from drinking Beetle Juice

Happy Simming!
