If you have never been to New Orleans for Mardi Gras before, I highly recommend it. I was there with a brand a while back and it was by far one of the top ten things I’ve ever experienced. The vibes are second-to-none.
Assuming not everyone has the flexibility or means to make a trip like this happen, I highly recommend celebrating Mardi Gras, aka. Fat Tuesday at home with friends and family. Order yourself a King Cake from Gambinos, make a Mardi Gras-inspired cocktail using Bacardi, and enjoy!
