Fun and educational walking tour that emphasized the link between the drinks and history of New Orleans!

I've been to New Orleans a dozen times over the years, so I consider myself pretty knowledgeable about the basic history of the city. Drink and Learn was a great way to learn more about the history and some of the famous drinks. It was just long enough that I felt like I got my money's worth, but not so long that I got bored. The drinks were tasty, but be warned you will be mixing lights and darks, so if your tummy doesn't take well to that, be prepared. Also, make sure to eat before the tour. This was a fun couple of hours with friends. I definitely recommend if you like a like a little history with your cocktails. read more

Fantastic tour! I have lived in NO for 3 years now and I am always looking for fun activities to do with guests and this tour knocked it out of the park. The drinks were fantastic and Elizabeth was charismatic and knowledgeable about both the history of Orleans and cocktails. Very unique tour that I highly recommend! read more

A group of us went on Elizabeth's tour and had an incredible time. It was very easy to set up a private tour for our group and Elizabeth was so accommodating! She is extremely knowledgeable and a fantastic storyteller- she made New Orleans' history come to life. I wish she led tours all around the country! Thanks for creating such a unique experience for us, Elizabeth! read more

Elizabeth is a pro at great storytelling and cocktail mixing! I was honestly surprised when we had already reached the halfway point in the tour. And she had up to date suggestions for what epic bartenders had moved where or opened their own bars! You get 4 drinks plus water for your tour, which makes the price an absolute steal. Loved how everyone was sharing stories of their favorite places and making plans to meet up later. Would absolutely go on this tour again. read more

What a great tour !! We did this tour on a Sat morning at 10 AM. Not too early for a cocktail ! The meeting place was actually a great little cafe that we would consider trying. Vacherie. Meetup was easy. Elizabeth couldn't be more personable, friendly and knowledgeable. This is a great endeavor for her. Each participant gets a small insulated bag with 4 drinks (and a water) inside. She tells you when and which drink to get out during the 2 hour tour. Everyone is super friendly..........more so after about the 3rd drink. LOL !!! We had such a good time. DO THIS TOUR if you are in New Orleans when she offers it. Wishing Elizabeth the best of luck on any future endeavors. read more

Fantastic Tour. Elizabeth was excellent and very knowledgeable. Drink were great and I would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting New Orleans. read more

Elizabeth is amazing. Seriously. It's impossible to describe after she makes you drink the Sazerac. And that's only drink #2. If you have a group, hang with Elizabeth. Oh, and make her sing (her Caberet song). Oh, and she recycles. This matters. read more

Elizabeth provides a tour like no other. She is engaging, entertaining and knowledgeable. The time flies by and it's sad when the experience is over. I recommend this event to all of my friends that visit New Orleans. The tour gives a wonderful history lesson in a very enjoyable manner. Plus the drinks are world class. In my opinion this tour is a must do for first time visitors and those who love New Orleans as I do. read more

Truly a unique way to learn NOLA history! I've done this tour about 5 times as I now take friends who are new to New Orleans on it as a great way to learn about the history while enjoying yummy cocktails. Elizabeth is the best! Highly entertaining. I highly recommend this tour. read more

Such an amazing tour! It's definitely a MUST! Probably my favorite part of my vacation. It's not only drinking it's about history. read more

Elizabeth was knowledgable and energetic right from the start! My husband and I visit New Orleans frequently and since we were visiting with my sister-in-law and brother-in-law, we wanted to do something introductory yet unique to the city. This fit the bill perfectly! Although it was a bit chilly during our tour (unseasonably cold), we didn't even notice and had an amazing time strolling, sipping on Elizabeth's craft cocktails, and stopping at iconic locations while listening to the history of each drink through her engaging narrative storytelling. It was a blast. Thanks, Elizabeth! read more

Amazing tour with incredible cocktails! Thoroughly enjoyable and I highly recommend this tour to anyone.

This was our kind of tour!! Our family was in New Orleans between Christmas & New Year and this was a perfect way to spend an afternoon. Elizabeth was very knowledgeable and informative as well as entertaining. We loved learning about the history and the drinks themselves. Since returning home, I have used the recipe cards for the drinks we learned about and I must say all 3 of them turned out great (getting the right ingredients makes a difference)! Thanks for a fabulous time! read more

I booked Elizabeth for her drink and learn tour for my bachelor party of 17. I was looking for an informative historical tour of both the city of New Orleans and also of alcohol as me and my boys are very interested in both. She absolutely knocked it out of the park. I can remember only one other tour in my life out of hundreds where I felt similarly wowed (an architectural tour on a boat in Chicago). Her knowledge of the subject matter was immense and allowed her to pivot and answer in depth whatever tangential questions we threw her way. Her oratorical delivery was engaging and held everyone's attention for the full two hours, even the lame dudes not interested in history. Of particular note was her line by line retelling of a Senator Soggys playing both sides stance on whiskey, especially amusing to us since one of the boys nicknames is Soggy (don't ask). We also got to take a picture of all of drinking in front of the Supreme Court of Louisiana, which is actually completely legal (what a city!) Which leads me to the drinks themselves. One might think they would be watered down to be provided to such a large group at 1030 am. Wrong! They were very tasting and got our buzz going strong to start the day. I somehow had never had a sazerac before and now it will be one of my go tos at the bar. All this is to say that I am very grateful to Elizabeth for making the first event of my bachelor party such a resounding success. It really set the tone for an epic weekend. - Gino read more

Our group of 7 had the opportunity to take this tour on Friday before Halloween. It was the highlight of our trip. Elizabeth and her assistant Monique are delightful. Elizabeth is warm, entertaining, and incredibly informative. My wife and I have personally been to New Orleans multiple times over multiple years and we both agreed that for the money, this tour was easily one of our top 3 tours of all time! We loved the education about the area, culture, and drinks of New Orleans and Louisiana. The drinks were delicious as well. We will definitely recommend the Drink and Learn tour to friends and family, and take it again ourselves! read more

Fantastic tour and maybe the best in NOLA (we feel). The tour starts at a great bakery for a snack and a meet and great. You will then journey out and discuss the history of NOLA and cocktails of course. Elizabeth is passionate about her work, drinks and history of course. From start to finish you or a group will be entertained. We loved it and will be back! read more

She does a great job walking you through history and I'd say she makes better drinks than most bartenders. She is wonderful!

This was an amazing tour. I was a little concerned that it would be a "bar-hop." Nothing wrong with that, but this was so much better. The history was fascinating and the cocktails were amazing. We have used the cocktail recipes we were given to impress our friends in Vermont. Highly recommend! read more

Elizabeth is a fantastic story teller and historian. This tour was so much fun!

Full disclosure, I was not excited to do this tour. But it was because I thought was going to be a tour exclusively talking about some of New Orleans infamous cocktails, interesting but Googleable. But what it was instead was the rich history of New Orleans while having the famous drinks and learning how the drinks were a product of their history. Cannot recommend enough. read more

Everything was wonderful. We started the tour knowing that we didn't like 2 of the drinks but we were incredibly wrong. We had just had bad ones of the same name. All the drinks were amazing and Elizabeth and Monique were great. Very informative and entertaining!! Recommend a 100%! read more

Probably the most interesting way to learn about the history of New Orleans and the cocktails that are a big part of the city's history. Elizabeth was a fantastic host and guide, she was great with the historical tidbits and the extra humor in the Louisiana heat was much appreciated. Besides the fantastic drinks and history, the tour had everything to make drinking in the heat much easier. The easy to carry packs with water and cocktail recipes made everything run as smooth as possible. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for a creative spin on the many tours New Orleans offers. Even my dad who doesn't care much for the history of a place thoroughly enjoyed this tour! read more

We booked our reservations over the phone and paid in cash on the day of ($5 off per person for cash payments) Elizabeth was such a great guide! She educated us on the history of New Orleans and of the drinks we were provided. Before the tour began, we were given a satchel of drinks - St. Charles Hotel Punch, Sazerac, Hurricane, & Praline Liquor. Elizabeth asked us to take out each drink at a certain point and educated us on it. Such a great way to see New Orleans in a 2 hour period! read more
