What it is: Over the weekend, a video of House of the Dragon Actors Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke discussing cocktails went viral for D'Arcy's hypnotic cadence while describing the classic Italian drink. Viewers, especially within the WLW space, are obsessed— referencing and memeing the drink/ interaction everywhere.
How brands can jump in: While linking to the main video may cause IP/restriction issues for brands, people are just referencing the drink in copy. This could be a fun way to engage with fans if your brand is allowed to mention alcoholic beverages, or if your brand plays within queer spaces.
Examples: 1, 2, 3
Urgency level: Much like a dragon's flame, this one is HOT. Don't miss the chance to reference it.
