The most expensive drink cost $59. Some Super Bowl 2025 attendees were floored by the hefty cocktail prices inside the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. And while the Eagles may have come out on top, beating the Chiefs 40-22, many game-goers felt defeated by the cost of just one drink at the game. Online, several people at the event posted pictures of the drink menu with alcoholic options being sold for upwards of $17 each.

For just one specialty concoction called the “Voodoo Magic,” spectators were expected to shell out $59. The contents of the drink included Don Julio 1942, Grand Marnier Cuvee Du Centenaire, single-pressed lime juice, jalapeno syrup, mango puree, black magic seasoning, and a dehydrated lime wheel. The “Voodoo Magic” was served in a Super Bowl 2025 branded glass with ice and what looked like tajin spice around the rim.

Other cocktails, such as the “Blackberry Lemonade” and the “Royal Carnival Queen,” came with cheaper prices but were still costly nonetheless. The “Blackberry Lemonade” — made with Crown Royal blackberry and lemonade — was $40, while the “Royal Carnival Queen” — mixed with Crown Royal apple, blackberry liqueur, lemon juice, prosecco, and lemon curl garnish — cost $26. The small selection of beer and wine had prices ranging from $14 to $17. A bottle of water, on the other hand, was $7.

“Ridiculous,” one person wrote on X next to screenshot of the drinks menu. A second begged: “Save your money.”. “So they charged 59 bucks for a spicy mango marg? They're crazy,” a third commented. Food-wise, Caesars Superdome served a Southern rendition of concession stand goodies from catfish po’boys to a New Orleans-style Philly cheesesteak. The food prices were surprisingly less expensive than the cocktails, with costs ranging from $9 to $30 depending on the item.
