Season 7 of HBO’s hit (read: awesome) series ‘Game of Thrones’ debuts on July 16 and we, like everyone else, are pretty stoked to see what unfolds in Westeros. And while we watch to see what George R. R. Martin and the network’s writers have in store for us, you best believe we’ll be whipping up some strong cocktails to help the pain when your favorite character ultimately dies.
All the cocktail talk got us thinking: if the ‘Game of Thrones’ characters were to all hang out at a bar, assuming it wouldn’t turn into another Red Wedding, what would they order from the bartender? Well, after serious consideration and some light research, we have some thoughts.
What your favorite — or least favorite — GoT character would order from the bar:
Tyrion Lannister
Everything. He’ll drink everything. Good luck to the bartender who tries to cut him off.
Jamie Lannister
Moscow mule. But only in a copper mug with a handle. Easy to drink with one hand, you know?
Cersei Lannister
A poorly made-at-home cosmo. Shame. Shame. Shame.
Daenerys Targaryen
Fireball shots for the squad.
Jon Snow
Gin and tonic. Seemed like it was dead for awhile, but now it’s making a huge comeback.
Sansa Stark
Gin martini with two olives. Classy AF, but packs a hell of a punch.
Arya Stark
Any drink that is garnished with a little sword.
Bran Stark
Absinthe. Although, we’re not sure he needs the help to get out of his own head.
Petyr Baelish
Vodka and water. But you’re not 100 percent sure if it actually has vodka in it or not.
Jorah Mormont
Daenerys’ leftover Fireball shots… when she’s not looking.
Daario Naharis
Room temperature tequila… out of the bottle. No lime.
Theon Greyjoy
Sex on the Beach… Too soon?
Sandor Clegane (a.k.a. The Hound)
A cask of Guinness. The entire thing.
Lord Varys
Is he even at the bar? He’s so sly, that one.
Samwell Tarly
A cold pint of craft brew IPA and some book by an author you’ve never heard of.
Bronn
Whatever someone is buying him.
Davos Seaworth
Scotch. And he’d share the bottle with you and tell some dope stories.
Melisandre
A spicy red wine, like a Malbec. If she tries to share, maybe just ask for bottled beer.
Brienne of Tarth
Soda water and lime. She’s Sansa’s DD.
Gilly
Anything she wants, on the house. What a doll.
Tormund Giantsbane
The Mead-King of Ruby Hall sure as shit doesn’t drink Fuzzy Navels.
Missandei
Negroni: a totally beautiful drink with lots of depth, but can be a tad on the bitter side.
Ellaria Sand
Red sangria, spiked with mezcal. She does what she wants.
The Mountain
Grain alcohol, infused with rust and salt.
Joffrey Baratheon
Definitely not wine.
