This is a recap of just my favorite bars and drinks we had in NOLA. You can probably guess by the lack of details that these were not the only bars and drinks we had. Some of these I'm going to re-make with a Melissa twist in the next couple of months, and will post if I make anything worthy of mention.
We started the trip at Pat O'Briens with Cyclones and Hurricane's.
Followed by Voodoo at Bourbon O bar. This was very tasty, and I believe it is Hawaiian Punch with Rum.
We also took at Historic Drinking Tour. We started at Muriel's with a refreshing drink that had cucumber in it, and a champagne something mix.
2nd stop was Hermes, and this is their wine collection. It was a very cool bar, cool restaurant and served a drink made with brandy and citrus.
The 3rd bar I have no idea the name. They served Mint Julep and a Sangria (but made with liquor).
We ended the tour at Bombay Club, a Martini bar. 2nd best Lemon Drop on my list, behind the Hong Kong Mortons. B is in the center, cousin Mike to the left, tour guide Sandy behind and a gift from Lafayette to the right.
Then we went to Funky Pirate and tried several drinks. The one above is called Shark Attack! I've made this drink before, but they added some bells and whistles (literally). When you order the Shark Attack, it comes with the grenadine in the plastic shark, they start ringing a life guard bell and blowing a whistle and then pour it into the glass. Nikki kept the first 3 sharks for kids bath toys, we left countless sharks on the tables. This was my favorite, but who's surprised by that?
Vodka
Sour
Grenadine
Splash of Soda
Can't leave without Hand Grenades. So tasty, so deadly.
