Looking for more Talen-Jei originals? Try the Cliff Racer or the Velvet Lechance next. But don’t be fooled: this drink as we’re making it today requires a steady shaker and some fine-tuned bartending knowledge.
Merely calling for a combination of meads, some cream, lavender and an orchid to top it all off, it sounds more like a dessert in a glass than a drink. The in-game recipe he provides us with is deceptively simple. But considering he seems to be the only bartender in the entirety of Tamriel that makes mixed drinks, he can probably get away with a slightly risque name – especially considering the drink itself is so damn tasty. To name a cocktail after it, then, is a bold choice of behalf of Talen-Jei of the Bee & Barb in Skyrim. And the Nords? They probably see it as a symbol of oppression and cowardice, considering the White-Gold Concordat that was signed in its shadow.
The High Elves see it as a boastful icon of supremacy. The Imperials see it as a sign of their sovereignty. The White Gold Tower, the centrepiece of the Imperial City in Cyrodiil, means a lot of different things to different people.
