On February 10th, the Smithsonian Associates in conjunction with the Museum of the American Cocktail are hosting a Famous New Orleans Cocktails! seminar.
I’ll quote Phil Green after the jump:

Join master New Orleans bartender Chris McMillian and yours truly, Phil Greene, on this fun and informative discussion of New Orleans’ rich and fascinating cocktail lore, and learn the histories and how to make the Hurricane, the Sazerac (which is featured in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button – Brad Pitt downs three of ‘em!), the Vieux Carre, and the Mint Julep.? You’ll also shake for yourself the famous Ramos Gin Fizz, which was the Louisiana Kingfish Huey Long’s favorite drink.? You’ll get to sample each of these delicious drinks, and will also be served great appetizers throughout.
The cost is only $35 for Smithsonian members, $45 for non-members, but spaces are going fast, so register today at the link shown above.? I hope to see you there, and laissez les bons temps rouler!
