I've only had it once but I remember enjoying it. I was with this guy that I used to work with and he asked if he could taste it.

He took a sip and said "Yep, definitely a fig drink. Now I'm going to go get another high life and I don't care if they pour it in a dirty glass"

On that note I take back 40% of whatever terrible shite I said about you at one point or another


See we are not so dissimilar after all!

If atmosphere counts, my vote goes to the Columns' mint julep.

The Bulleit smash is a great drink too.

Yeah, I'm drinking. It's Mardi Gras.

Those are damn good. Wouldn't call it best in my life but I couldn't fault someone else if they did.

There are probably half a dozen Pimm's cup drinks I enjoy in the city. I Really like the one at boucherie :)

I've had a handful of enjoyable cocktails at Coquette. Couldn't tell you the name of them to save my life.

Would definitely recommend going to Cure (think LE mentioned it earlier) and just ordering everything

If I'm looking to get drunk and want a melon tasting drink, I prefer a Jester daiquiri to a hand grenade.

Coquette is a great spot to grab a cocktail, I generally just tell the barkeep a liquor and style and let him go to work.

Bouligny Tavern is another great spot, little pricey but nice atmosphere.
