Game of Thrones is one of the best shows in television history and every detail of the show gets lots of attention from the fans. In fact, the show took pride in making sure that everything fits into the universe and the era shows is living in. However, Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 4 made a blunder, which soon became the talk of the town. In the scene where a lavish dinner celebration took place after the defeat of the night king, the presence of a Starbucks coffee cup grabbed all the attention.
After spotting the coffee mug, fans and critics of the show completely lost their calm. People soon started pointing out the silly mistake and slamming the production for the same. The coffee cup was pretty evident sitting in front of Daenerys Targaryen. You can check the picture down below:

HBO has already accepted the mistake and said, “News from Winterfell. The latte that appeared in the episode was a mistake. #Daenerys had ordered herbal tea.”

That’s what big brand do, they take advantage of the latest trending topics and add it to their benefits. Starbucks is hilariously promoting itself with some hilarious responses. Take a note, you all marketing geniuses.
There is a limited number of Been There mugs available only at select stores in The North.

The makers of the show have already re-edited the episode and removed that 0.2 seconds of the scene from the episode which is currently available for streaming. It is inarguably the biggest mistake in the history of Game of Thrones.
