Why are there so many variations of the popular drink? These are just a few of the questions to be answered on this narrated Sunday brunch tour. At each of the eateries that we visit, you’ll be able to indulge in the area’s thriving restaurant scene with portions that add up to a meal. Not a fan of Bloody Mary’s? Guests can elect day-of to substitute for other alcoholic and non-alcoholic drink options.
