Great book

This was an amazing read. It not only has great recipes but has stories and background for the people and places that make drinks in New Orleans unique. There is a rich history of food & drink to be found here and this book covers a great deal of itMakes a fun gift for anyone that dabbles in cocktails!

What a gorgeous book! It is a little bit on the small side physically, but don’t let that deter you. It is lovely to look at, lovely to read, and great drink recipes! I have it sitting on my coffee table.

My hubby & I loved the drinks so much while visiting NOLA that I couldn't help buying this recipe book to create all the drinks to enjoy in our very own home.

New Orleans is one of my favorite places to visit. I got this just for fun, but it does have all the good spots and signature drink recipes. Every bar that I recommend to friends who travel there are noted in this book. Has been great for recipes when I’m feeling like a NOLA cocktail

Saw in a store in New Orleans and found for cheaper on Amazon. Gave as a gift after a trip to New Orleans, and it was perfect.

Has some great ideas for genuine NOLA cocktails!
