As part of the Iconoclasts of Taste project, AVM Curiosities presented The Ophelia; a limited edition cocktail made in collaboration with Grey Goose's Oli Blackburn and the Gilbert Scott.

The Ophelia was a liquid lament on Ophelia's last lines in Hamlet where the character rants and raves about the flowers before her watery demise. In keeping with the tragic tale, the cocktail had floral notes mixed with classic orchard fruits, and came complete with an edible cocktail card in the form of Millais's famous rendition of the subject.
