      Update on the session:
      In the main campaign, my Air Genasi Fighter was chloroformed by a dragon cultist and had a memory of an arena match he saw a decade ago as a one-shot. One of the Fighters was my 6’11”, 375lbs Dragonborn Paladin, Dolri, who moonlights as a Gladiator names Wicked Blue and fights like a foreign wrestling heel.
      He was along with my friend’s Tortle Fighter and a Goliath Paladin. So, squad of absolute units.
      The arena show ended with the Goliath and I trading Lay On Hands to save each other from death. On 1 HP, my Paladin flanked with the Goliath Paladin, we both cast Thunderous Smite, and with a combo of my Hunter’s Mark, the lightning reverberated and burst a Gelatinous Cube like a speaker overloaded with bass.
      As the cube exploded, Dolri acknowledged he was a good guy in Silverymoon, and left having made two new friends.
      Meanwhile, Tomera the Air Genasi also got to see a memory of his boyfriend Andrew and the man who later ruined his life. So, FULL NIGHT.

    I've tried making health and mana potion cocktails before. I know mana potions aren't a D&D thing, but they're still a fixture in fantasy. I remember my mana potions actually came out really good, health potions were just OK. Unfortunately I don't remember either recipe any more. I also tried to make them not just taste good (and strong), but fit the theme. My mana potion was slightly effervescent and I think I used some grapefruit vodka in it to give it the slight tingly/numbing effect grapefruit can have. I also put edible pearl dust in it to make it visually sparkly and magical looking. I tried to make the health potion a bit herbal and medicinal.

    Greg, you're probably never gonna see this anymore, but today my D&D group was having a chat and someone mentioned the White Russian and someone else went "Russians don't exist in this world, that would be a White Dragonborn" and then a conversation started about possible cocktails based on D&D races, like a White Dragonborn would have to be a slushie (the same thing but as a frozen solid ice lollie would be White Dragon) and a red dragon could have Fireball, and it reminded me of your channel. There's a lot of potential inspiration in the various races (think Drow Daiquiri as well) so Iunno, if you'd be interested, might be fun to have another D&D episode 2 years later..?

    I absolutely love these for D&D and can't wait to use them!
    Also when I play I usually ask my players to either point buy or roll 4d6 (dropping the lowest) depending on their comfort with rolling.

    Oh my goodness watching the whole process is mouth watering. And I love the attention to detail, the interesting facts and all that!

    We always called mead with hops "frog mead."

    Hey, Greg! The TV show/movie 'M*A*S*H' featured drinking fairly heavily; any chance of doing a 4077th-themed episode?

    Yes you are, Greg. That's why I'm here!

    As someone who loves DnD/RPGs and mead, I'm glad you had both in this video.

    I use to have DragonStrike!! My brother and I wore out the tape but I think he still has the rest. Also the Kolbold Cooler was a big hit for my nondrinking players. Thank you very for these recipes. Tonight we will be trying the Tavern punch as I send forth my hero's into the mines
