Enjoy a taste of the past! Imbibe historically popular cocktails in Georgia’s most historic city.

 

EXPERIENCE:

Savannah has always been tippler-friendly city. Modern day, there are several local breweries and distilleries, along with cocktail classes and award-winning bartenders. But how did Savannahians of previous centuries enjoy their refreshments?

The first stop is Jazz’d Tapas Bar. Savannah was once known as a “Madeira city,” so you get to party like it’s 1849 with a glass of Madeira wine and a warm cheese plate, almost exactly like upper class inhabitants in the mid-19th century. Next, head down the block to Savannah Bee Company to sample the most ancient alcoholic beverage in the world- mead. The flight includes 6 1-ounce pours of different categories and brands to really show off how much variety can be obtained from honey, water, yeast, and any combination of other ingredients. The third drink is a refreshing mint julep from the cozy bar of the 17Hundred90 Inn & Restaurant. Your evening ends at The Pirates’ House Restaurant for a sip of Savannah’s signature cocktail: the Chatham Artillery Punch. The tour ends between 7:00 and 7:30, so you still have plenty of time to avail yourself of Savannah’s nightlife and restaurant scene.
