Add this to advanced -> blog post item code injection on the blog page settings in question:

<style>
p:first-child:first-letter {
  float: left;
  line-height: 120%;
  width: 1em;
  font-size: 350%;
}
</style>

The code worked, kind of. The code capitalised a P2 style too, which you can see in the photo. I should've said, I need it to target only P1 style.

P1 has the selector: p.sqsrte-large

Try this:

<style>
p.sqsrte-large:first-child:first-letter {
  float: left;
  line-height: 120%;
  width: 1em;
  font-size: 350%;
}
</style>
