Pandora Elixir
Thomas J. Story
Pandora, Avatar's lush 3D otherworld, is a forest paradise brimming with mysterious plants, flowers, and sentient trees. In one scene, Neytiri gives Jake a round fruit that looks similar to our passion fruit, a key flavor in this new cocktail we created for Oscar night. We imagine if there were a bar on Pandora, this would be its signature drink.
