For any history buff in your group, we’ll travel back to the 1700s and visit a bar which used to entertain some of the most eccentric characters in New Orleans history. Here, we can taste an infamous drink of the city and learn how it has influenced New Orleans drinking culture today.
For those who like their drinks sweet and less spirit-forward, we can include a range of delicious dessert-like cocktails so good you’ll forget there’s alcohol in it!
And for those wanting to truly experience the essence of New Orleans cocktail culture, we’ll certainly want to include a tour stop at the cocktail bars known for making the city’s best Sazerac, the “official cocktail of New Orleans”. One of the first cocktails ever invented, it’s definitely tasty enough to stand the test of time. We can also touch upon the topic of how medicine influenced the Sazerac and other cocktails alike.
Another classic New Orleans invention we may want to include on your quintessential cocktail tour is the much-beloved Ramos Gin Fizz. We can learn why this drink is original and exclusive to New Orleans and witness an expert bartender making it. After our first sip, you’ll truly understand why New Orleans has been called, “the cradle of civilised drinking.”
Whether it’s a full flight of included cocktails or a pay-as-you-wish experience where you sample drinks that speak to your senses, our team is ready to show off the best of New Orleans and its incredible cocktail scene!
