How it started[]

Hanne Paine and Kagan MacTane as advocates of the show collaborated together and started a series of "The Expanse"-inspired cocktails, a unique style of fan art. They have now been served as part of the immersive Belter Bar experience at Worldcon 2018, The Great Philadelphia Comic Con 2019, which will be run again for the NYC Expanse Season 4 premiere mini-convention.

The entire range of Expanse Cocktails (now numbering over 125, and growing each week) can be found on The Expanse Cocktails website. Below is a sample of the first 51 character drinks and assorted special drinks.

    Notes[]

    • On October 20, 2017, the creators of the cocktail series introduced a guessing game.[8]
      1. a clue corresponding with the character to be highlighted would be shared on the Friday via a tweet preceding the reveal of the cocktail itself.
      2. each participant would be allowed three guesses these would need to be posted as comments on the clue
      3. correct guesses will be entered into a drawing to take place just before season 3
      4. the first cocktail of the series to be included in the guessing game was #❽, Shaddid.
    • On February 28, 2018, following the announcement of the season 3 premiere date on SyFy, the creators of the cocktail series revealed a move of their release cycle from Friday-Tuesday to Monday-Thursday. [9] This first affected the #27 cocktail, Alex Kamal
    • On April 1st, 2018, two weekends before the third season aired and Easter Sunday, three special edition "April Fools Day" drinks were announced outside of the regular release cycle.
    #AF1 UNS Arboghast
    #AF2 "Listening Woman" (actually character credit was "Belter Prostitute")
    #AF3 Angry Dockworker
    • Season 3 began the week of cocktail 32. Following the reveal of number 31, the count of each participant's correct guesses was tallied for a drawing and the count was reset.
    • The first drawing was posted April 23rd on Twitter![10]
    • On April 12th 2018, SyFy announced that it would not renew the show for season 4. This kicked off a fan campaign to save the show. Two drinks were created in connection with the campaign. The first during the campaign. The second as a commemoration of the successful campaign.
