Just one day back in NYC and we’re already missing that singular New Orleans bouquet—po’-boy grease, Angostura bitters and bartenders frying in the Louisiana heat. Tales of the Cocktail has come and gone (read all about it here), and with the city’s bartenders back at their posts, it’s safe once again to go out for a drink. But before we give a final doff of the hat to the TOTC crew for a spectacular week of seminars, parties and cocktail dinners, check out this slide show for a glimpse of the event’s unique mix of education and debauchery.
Still not sure where to cool your heels? Peruse this list of winners at TOTC’s annual Spirit Awards for some worthy ideas. NYC cleaned up (natch).

It was my first time at the TOTC, and I felt like I died and went to heaven! It was educational, fun, and an awesome event to meet the greats in this industry and all of the people that made this festival so beautiful! The food, libations, and parties (especially pool) was endless! I almost cried leaving for the airport! The memories I have of TOTC will remain in my heart FOREVER! Congrats to PDT, Pegu, Clover, David and Dale-GO NY!!!!
