Ruby Slipper Releases Winter Brunch Menu Items

NEW ORLEANS –  Ruby Slipper has rolled out its new winter menu loaded with delightful flavors, indulgent sweets and Ruby’s signature boozy brunch twist, available through Jan. 13 at all locations.

The restaurant hopes guests will celebrate the season with these limited-time menu items:

• White Chocolate Cranberry Beignets ($7.25): New Orleans–style beignets filled with white chocolate cheesecake and topped with crystallized macerated cranberries, orange curd and whipped cream.

• White Chocolate Cranberry Stuffed French Toast ($13): Brioche French toast filled with white chocolate and macerated cranberries, topped with orange curd, whipped cream and crystallized cranberries.

• Grillades & Grits ($14): Slow-cooked pork medallions braised in rich tomato and brown gravy served over creamy smoked gouda grits, topped with a sunny-side egg and hot-sauce-marinated crispy onions.

• Dirty Chai Latte ($6.50) / Dirty Chai Iced Latte ($7): French Truck espresso with chai-tea-infused milk and cream and a swirl of chai caramel.

• Winter Sangria ($11): A bright, sparkling blend of brandy, macerated cranberry juice, orange juice and sparkling wine served with crystallized cranberries – perfect for heartfelt holiday toasts.

“This lineup blends festive comfort with Ruby Slipper’s signature Southern approach, warm chai, bright citrus, cozy cranberries and dishes that feel like a holiday hug,” said Chef Marla Chu, culinary director for Ruby Slipper. “We love creating flavors that not only capture the joy of the season, but make Ruby the perfect place to gather with family and friends to share good food, good company and good tidings.”

Additionally, Ruby Slipper is continuing its $1, $3 and $5 fundraising campaign to support local food banks, live now through Dec. 20. Guests can add a donation to their check, and all contributions will be matched up to $15,000 by The Weishaupt Family Foundation.
