This is the "Game of Cones."
We're here at Wanderlust Creamery.
I'm INSIDER's resident "Game of Thrones" expert and writer
and Wanderlust does this series called "Game of Cones"
which is a set of ice cream flavors that are all
"Game of Thrones" themed.
I am super excited to try them and it's going to
be delicious.
The Song of Ice and Fire obviously relates to
Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow, our two Targaryen heroes.
And so what they did was they took a base of
dragon fruit, hah, get it?
And then blood orange, so blood.
"Fire and Blood" are the house words of House Targaryen.
Ooh!
There is fire in there.
That's delicious.
Daenerys Targaryen says all the time in the show like,
"I will take what is mine with fire and blood"
because she's a Targaryen and she's gotta do what
she's gotta do to get herself back to Westeros.
- I am not your little princess.
I am Daenerys Stormborn of the blood of Old Valyria
and I will take what is mine, with fire and blood
I will take it.
I can barely say the name of this ice cream with
a straight face.
I think Khal Drogo would be very happy with the
Dothrocky Road ice cream.
There's nothing, nothing to hate here.
No wars to start over this ice cream.
In both the books and the show there's actually
a special liquid that's essentially like morphine,
it's like medieval morphine but in this fantasy world
that people drink to kinda ease their pain so death by
Crème of the Poppy ice cream doesn't sound half bad.
Ned Stark in season one, rest his soul,
after Jaime Lannister basically attacks him and
he's in a lot of pain, Maester Pycelle gives him
milk of the poppy.
Then same with King Robert Baratheon, also RIP,
he takes a lot of milk of the poppy after he's been
gored by the boar and he just wants to, you know,
drift off into a sweet, painless death.
- Give me something for the pain.
And let me die.
- [Ned Stark] Give him milk of the poppy.
This beautiful scoop of ice cream here is called
Growing Strong.
Those are the house words of
House Tyrell, which everyone who watches the show
has to love Margaery and Olenna Tyrell, it's a requirement.
- Growing Strong.
Ha!
The dullest words of any house.
Winter is Coming.
Now, that's memorable.
House Tyrell,
RIP.
Spoiler alert.
Unfortunately "Game of Thrones" doesn't make a
lot of time for our characters to be leisurely
enjoying a bowl of ice cream.
Instead they're like, fighting awful wars or
stabbing each other in the literal backs.
So fun, so relaxing, so summery.
It's just like the Iron Throne, I might stab myself
in the eye with an ice cream cone.
