Our current show – link in bio – is all about the terrific organization, Son of A Saint! They provide years of support to boys growing up without a father in their lives in the New Orleans area. We discuss the organization, its programs, and why it matters so much. The margaritas? Why not?
Actually, there is much more to it than that! Here, one of our guests, Nick Guth of Proximo Spirits and Jose Cuervo Tequila (and a Son of Saint mentor), mixes us up some ‘ritas with a purpose! Learn how you can support the cause by purchasing a margarita at numerous establishments around the NOLA area (a list of participating spots can be found on our site by using the link in our bio, as well).

We welcome Sophie Burton with The Mayhaw at St. Roch Market and Politan Row and Geoffrey Wilson of Turning Tables and Latitude 29. We discuss a host of issues including equity in the hospitality industry, customer behavior during the pandemic, and a whole lot more!

Hey All! Our latest The #NOLADrinks Show with Bryan Dias is all about “sustainability behind the bar!” Pictured here is a great way to create something tasty, long-lasting, and will save a whole lotta oranges! It’s an Orange Oil Tincture that works great in place of using an actual peel each time and makes for an easy expression in cocktails.
Hear more about this on the episode and get the recipe, courtesy of @themayhaw bar at @st.rochmarket, in our show notes. Link to it all in our bio! Cheers and Be Well, You All!

Well this was a terrific event at the Southern Food and Beverage Museum yesterday out on the redone "Gumbo Garden" patio!

Great job by Brent Rosen (left) and the rest of the SoFAB team, Laura and Marissa, and all the makers for making this special event happen. Looking forward to the next one!

Answer (and show) soon... Cheers and Be Well, You All!✌️❤️🍹
