I get a lot of my cocktail inspo from restaurants and bars we’ve visited while traveling. I live for a well-balanced cocktail and will travel both near and far for a delicious drink…especially if word on the street is, “you MUST try this cocktail from…”.

When we were visiting Louisville, Kentucky last summer (check out that Travel Guide here!) we stayed in the amazing Omni hotel, which was located right downtown. Now… you know you’re probably staying at the best hotel in Louisville, when there is a speakeasy hidden away near the lobby. Best amenity ever! Well, it was...
