NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) - Sooner or later, it had to happen. In the boozy business of quenching the thirst of New Orleans, somebody was bound to do it. It is a bar. And it's now in the Garden District Book Shop. Hey Santa! Say ‘Jingle Bells’ for the perfect family photo WGNO Good Morning New Orleans features reporter Bill Wood is ready to sip and read. Like restaurants, pairing wines with food, the Garden District Book Shop pairs drinks with books. It's an invitation to come on in, have a drink, and relax with a good book. "For instance, we have the 'Expecto Patronum', which is a spell from Harry Potter and it essentially brings up you happiest memories, which we think that this does," said Caroline Johnson. One of the hundreds on the shelves here like "Interview with the Vampire." "Oh definitely 'The Vampire's Kiss'. It's a bourbon drink with some sherry. It's moody and it will make you feel like a newborn vampire," said Johnson. The latest chapter is not fiction, it's true. No need to drink to get a buzz at this New Orleans bar And it's for you. "We wanted to create a space that felt like an extension of our living room or a place where we can all gather with our friends and family and just hang out with a cocktail," said Carroll Zimmer It's a real-life reality only in New Orleans. There's a bar in the bookshop. Belly up for the next chapter because a good book gets even better with a good book.
