Dr. Nut

Dr. Nut

Dr. Nut was a soft drink produced by New Orleans-based World Bottling Company during the first half of the 20th century. Dr. Nut had a distinct almond flavor, similar to Amaretto liquor and bottles were characterized by their plain logo depicting a squirrel nibbling on a large nut.

The drink was made famous to a new generation in John Kennedy Toole's novel A Confederacy of Dunces, in which it is a favourite drink of the main character Ignatius Reilly. By the time the novel saw print, the beverage was already out of production.
