In honor of the return of Game of Thrones and its six season debut on HBO, Emmanuel Pena has put together a series of character cocktails that honor those that have survived through season five as well as some of the most popular locations. The cocktails recreate the aesthetic of the characters using colored mixes and alcohol.
The beverages each range in taste and color to reflect the different characters from the cast. For example, The White Walker beverage contains smooth and icy gin topped with triple sec to give the drink a contrasting blue hue and frothed egg whites to replicate the snowy climate the villains live in. In contrast, The Targaryen cocktail replicates Khalessi's sweet yet fierce personality with black tea, honey and whiskey.
