Free Spirits in New Orleans, LA

The Rum House is a Caribbean-inspired taqueria and rum bar that opened on Magazine Street in June 2009, founded by Baton Rouge natives Michael Buchert and Kelly Ponder. The Uptown spot is known for island-style tacos and a bar stocked with over 200 rums. Its non-alcoholic offering is a named mocktail line developed with local personality Lauren Haydel of Fleurty Girl, which took off after one of her themed lemonade mocktails went viral during a high-traffic concert weekend. The mocktails are built on Free Spirits non-alcoholic tequila: the Heaux Ranch Water (lime, soda water), the Fleurty Faux-Rita (lime, agave, jalapeños), and the Teasequila Sunrise (orange juice, grenadine), available daily and during the weekday Island Time happy hour.
