SPORTS DRINK was founded in 2020 by Andrew Stephens, a Baton Rouge native and New Orleans hooligan. It started as a podcast network focused on the nexus of sports & comedy, but has since leaned further into the local comedy scene in New Orleans.
SPORTS DRINK opened in New Orleans in April 2023, sharing a space with Junk Drawer Coffee. After more than a year of successful partnership, Junk Drawer expanded into a larger facility at 2045 Broadway, acting as a cafe and roasting facility. As of August 2024, SPORTS DRINK took over all cafe operations on Toledano Street and is proudly be serving Junk Drawer Coffee.
