House of The Dragon fans were pretty much already obsessed with leading cast members Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke, who play Rhaenyra Targaryen and Alicent Hightower in HBO’s new series. However, now after a video of the two discussing their favorite cocktail has gone viral over the weekend, it’s safe to say the obsession has reached a whole new level of appreciation.
If you’ve been on TikTok in the last few days then it’s very likely you’ll have heard the words “negroni, sbagliato with prosecco in it.” The phrase comes from a video of Emma and Olivia discussing their favourite drink.
Olivia asks Emma as part of a TikTok for HBO Max: “what’s your drink of choice?” Emma then responds saying: “A negroni, sbagliato, with prosecco in it,” and Olivia replies, “Ooh, oh stunning.”
I’ll take one of each. #houseofthedragon
The video has now been viewed nearly 10 million times with the comment section full of people raving about the clip. In particular people are obsessed with Emma’s voice and the way they say “prosecco”.
One person commented: “It’s the ‘with prosecco in it…’ for me omg Emma’s voice is just 😍.”
And another said: “Emma’s voice is like aged wine that’s extremely expensive 😍.”
On Twitter many people were also talking about the video and saying they were now on the hunt for the perfect negroni sbagliato with prosecco in it.
One person said: “Suddenly so important that I find somewhere in London to get a rly nice negroni sbagliato with prosecco in it. This has never mattered to me before.”
And another questioned: “Wonder how many bartenders have had to make negroni sbagliato’s with prosecco in it this week.”

Nobody:
Me every 5 minutes: negroni sbagliato with Prosecco in it
So what actually is a negroni sbagliato with prosecco in it?
A classic negroni is made up of equal parts gin, sweet vermouth and Campari.
The sbagliato version is named “sbagliato” literally meaning a “mistake” in Italian, after bartender Mirko Sotcchetti accidentally used sparkling wine instead of gin when creating the classic drink.
A sbagliato uses a ratio of 2:1:1 of sparkling wine (prosecco in Emma’s case), sweet vermouth and Campari.
It is meant to be a lighter style of the negroni whilst still retaining the classic bitterness of a the drink.
Well if it’s good enough for Emma, it’s good enough for us.
