🐛 Bug Fix​

chameleon-react​

• Dropcap: Added more breathing room around the drop cap on browsers that support initial-letter. !2792
• TeaserTaxonomy: Fixed the wrapper rendering when premium is set but the premium badge is not placed in the taxonomy area for the current variant and breakpoint. !2784

This is a breaking type change with no known runtime impact. !2785
