House of the Dragonactors Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke already dominate Sunday nights in with their hit HBO Max show — but they’re also giving fans some inspiration for Saturday nights out.
“A negroni,” D’Arcy, who plays Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen, answered in their beloved breathy voice.
“I was going to say the same thing,” replied Cooke.
“Sbagliato,” continued D’Arcy while raising their eyebrows. “With prosecco in it.”
“Oh, stunning!” said Cooke enthusiastically.
In an interview with theNew York Times, D’Arcy says the clip was a result of a long day. “I feel so embarrassed. Because in those interviews, when we’ve been at it for six hours, I’m honestly only trying to make Olivia laugh,” they said.
Negroni sbagliato is just like a traditionalnegronibut with one ingredient swap — instead of the traditional Campari, sweet vermouth and gin, sparkling wine is used in the gin’s place.
Some of the tens of thousands of videos reacting to the clip clarify that “negroni Sbagliato with prosecco” is a redundant order (sbagliato already implies Prosecco) and people should simply order a negroni sbagliato. If you’re attempting it yourself at home, 1 1/2 ounces of each ingredient is a good place to start — and don’t forget the orange peel.
