TJLC Explained: [Episode 7] The Drink Code

Welcome back to another episode of TJLC Explained! In this video I talk about another popular fan theory: The Drink Code. The basic gist of the drink code is that whenever a character drinks something, or talks about drinking something, that specific drink was chosen for a symbollic reason. I'll walk through the major categories and give some of the important examples.

TJLC stands for The Johnlock Conspiracy or the belief that the writers of BBC Sherlock have intended for John and Sherlock to end up in a romantic relationship since the start.
