180px-Untitled Hera

Hera presumably drinking Ambrosia

Ambrosia is the food/drink of the greek gods. The consumption of ambrosia was typically reserved for divine beings, as it is attributed to have vast healing, regenerative and immortalising capabilities.

In God of War Comics

In issue one of the comic series, based on events after God of War, Kratos is on an unknown quest for The Ambrosia, making his way through waves of Hades' minotaurs to the place of Asclepius, God of medicine. The comic also reveals some of Kratos' childhood, Spartan army and family history. It becomes apparent that the new God of War's search is not his first. He began the hunt for The Ambrosia once before to save his newborn daughter, Calliope, from Plagues, before she was sacrificed under Spartan law as unfit.

In God of war III

It is commonly assumed that the content of Hera's Chalice, during Kratos' battle with Hercules, was Ambrosia mixed with wine.
