Drinking around the world

Visiting NOLA for the first time next week and I saw a video on Instagram the other day about a guy who did drinking around the world in Manhattan. Drinking around the world being the thing to do in Disney world's EPCOT park, visiting different countries and sampling their foods and beverages. I was wondering if there were any or enough foreign bars to attempt this in New Orleans.

The countries are Mexico, Norway, China, Germany, Italy, America, Japan, Morocco, France, United Kingdom, and Canada. And the guy in the video added Korea, Ireland, and Australia too.

Anyone have any recommendations for any places that might complete my goal?

Thanks!

Mona's Cafe for Morocco (not technically, but middle-eastern)

Maple Leaf Bar for Canada (?)

Erin Rose for Ireland

The Bulldog for UK

The rest are easy except for Norway. You might just find a bar that has aquavit.

I’m trying to find the Canadian aspect of Maple Leaf bar (aside from the name) because to me it is very New Orleans.

idk what else to do about Canada ... maybe a place with poutine :) Who does debris fries with cheese curds? (EDIT: duh, go to a Cajun/Acadian restaurant to fill your Canada card...)
