Mardi Gras Cocktail Recipe from Galveston’s Tremont House

February 22, 2019 | By Melissa Gaskill

When Galveston held its first Mardi Gras celebration in 1867, no one recorded the libations served. But modern-day revelers can hoist a signature Mardi Gras Punch (see below for recipe) at the Tremont House hotel, which shares the island’s long history with the raucous holiday.
