For the "tater sticker," we paid homage to the birthplace of the Sazerac drink, New Orleans. When we think of the Big Easy, a few things come to mind - Sazerac, beignets, Mardi Gras, and jazz. While our first selection had a Louis Armstrong-inspired sticker, this one pays homage to the greatest annual party there is, the Mardi Gars.
