The 2023 Brandy Alexander Tour Map.
Completing your 2023 Kinsman Brandy Alexander Tour successfully begins with a small degree of planning and mapping, and luckily for you, the heavy lifting has already been done!
We’ve broken down the Tour into stages, or evenings, so you can be sure to complete it with very little effort, and a whole lot of fun! Planning your dinner around the cocktails will go a long way in reducing the drive time as well as the rideshare bill.
Walking between the Tour stops is highly encouraged. Your calorie counter will thank you….if you’re into that sort of thing.
Plus we’ve added a stop in Austin this year, so now you’ve got an especially tasty reason to plan a trip up North.
Southtown & Downtown.
The Southtown and Downtown scenes are back at it again this year with their storied traditions of supporting the annual Kinsman Brandy Alexander Tour. The participants offer visitors and locals an alternative to run-of-the-mill menus year-round, and an incredibly convenient opportunity to taste a wide array of takes on the classic Brandy Alexander. Plan your tour with easy stops at Bar Loretta, Double Standard, Esquire Tavern, Fairmount Hotel, Landrace, Liberty Bar, Maverick Texas Brasserie, and Sojourn Trading Co.
Pearl and Quarry.
The Historic Pearl has been a Tour destination every year since the inaugural 2015 Tour. Allora and Ladino return this year with fresh takes on the classic cocktail. Allora’s silky smooth Horchata Rosa is an almond lover’s dream, while Ladino pairs their Alexander’s Pride with a Serbian ratluk, better known as Turkish Delight. Plus Down on Grayson joins the Tour for the first time and offers an expansive, tree-covered patio to relax in while sipping their rich and creamy Kinsman Alexander.
Three Tour spots within walking distance couldn’t be more convenient! And it’s just a short drive up 281 to Piatti at the Quarry. Piatti’s Apple of My Eye is paired with a delicious apple strudel that’s best when dipped like an Oreo into the cocktail.
NW San Antonio
Signature continues to shine on the Kinsman Brandy Alexander Tour, and this year’s Great Expectations, is no exception. Snag a dinner reservation and kick back and relax with this eggnog-esque take on the classic cocktail that shines with notes of cinnamon, clove, nutmeg and vanilla.
Austin
Austin enters the mix this year with the El Chabacano brought to you by the team at Bacalar, the recently opened Yucatan inspired restaurant in Austin’s Rainey Street District. The cocktail features Rakia and cinnamon-infused Sotol paired with a house-made churro. All the more reason to plan a trip up 35.
