Starbucks launches House of the Dragon inspired menu in Europe
Starbucks wants you to pick a side between Team Black and Team Green.
Starbucks has an interesting history with Game of Thrones. The world’s largest coffeehouse chain didn’t enter a formal partnership with the producer and yet managed $2.3 billion worth of free advertising due to that famous coffee cup scene during the fourth episode of the eighth season of GoT, titled “The Last of Starks”. But this time around, Starbucks is officially collaborating with Warner Bros. Discovery for the promotion of the House of the Dragon.
Housed in a finely carved wooden box, this set is an absolute must-have for any House of the Dragon enthusiast!

Starbucks European customers will have to pledge their choice of Team Black or Team Green
The first two episodes of season two of the House of the Dragon have set the tone for a devastating Targaryen civil war. And now, Starbucks asks its European customers to pick a side between Teams Black and Team Green when they get their morning coffee. This is part of the “Max Nights, Starbucks Mornings” promotion, which is currently taking place in stores in Spain, France, and Portugal.

If you’re in Portugal and visit a Starbucks coffee, you can choose from a ‘Targaryen Frappuccino’ or a ‘Black Queen Cold Brew’ to pledge allegiance to Team Black. But if you’re not a fan of that side and want to defend the side of Aegon II or Team Green, you can opt for a ‘Green King iced matcha’ or a ‘Dracarys matcha Frappuccino’. If you’re in Portugal, you’ve until July 31 to pick a side.
However, it’s worth noting that the names of the beverages are different for different European countries. For example, if you’re in France, ‘Targaryen Iced Americano with cream cold foam’ is for people who support Team Black, while opting for ‘Dracarys iced white mocha matcha tea latte with cream cold foam’ means you’re supporting Team Green. However, in this part of Europe, the promotion will start on July 26 and will continue till the next day.
The third episode of House of the Dragon will be aired this Sunday at 9 p.m. ET / 6 p.m. PT on HBO and Max.
