Properly done, a well-made cocktail is as much theater as it is thirst-quencher.

Like any good production, the staging and performance are vital – the shape of the glass, the rhythm of the shaker, the dance of the ingredients followed by the final flourish of a mint leaf or fruit garnish. From your seat at the bar, it’s easy to lose yourself in the process. The world outside fades away. You loosen your grip on the day as you take that first sip. Tampa Bay’s cocktail culture can be as simple as a classic gin and tonic or as elegantly complex as a drink infused with smoke from a hand-rolled Ybor City cigar.

IN THE KNOW VIP SNAPSHOTS

In June 2019, the Toronto Raptors were crowned NBA Champions. The championship roster was often noted for its diversity because the team contained players from England, Spain, Republic of the Congo, and Cameroon, as well as the first Asian-American to win an NBA title.

Travel to Kirksville Missouri and enjoy a lovely weekend

Tucked into the foothills of Appalachia is the region of Ohio known as the Hocking Hills. Conveniently located fifty miles southeast of the capital city of Columbus, the region is a complete escape from the pace of urban living. These hills were covered by the Atlantic Ocean 330 million years ago. Today these hills are visited by more than 4.5 million travelers each year. The main attraction is the Hocking Hills State Park which is comprised of six non-contiguous sites, each with its own distinct character. Every season engulfs the park with spectacular scenery but winter is magical. Fairytale looking ice beards cover the cave walls, waterfalls freeze in suspended animation and the winter sun floods the snow-covered pines and forest floor. Winter in the Hocking Hills is soft and…

Trails, Rails, and Ales when Dining in the Gem City

If you’re expecting country music and cowboy boots, that’s what you’ll get in Laramie, Wyoming. You’ll also find a beloved vegetarian restaurant, more ethnic bistros than you have ever imagined, craft beer, craft cheese, craft ice cream, and craft chocolate. Unexpected? That’s Laramie, Wyoming. The Downtown district is located next to an active railyard that was once a major stop on the Union Pacific railroad. A pedestrian footbridge joins the east and west sections of the town, and periodically Laramie’s historic buildings rumble as a train passes. If you’re lucky enough to be close when a train comes into town, close your eyes for a minute when you hear its whistle and imagine you have just arrived in Laramie more than a century ago! Before or after your dinner, take…

A true hidden gem, Texas wine is budding, and visitors are raising a glass to the High Plains.

You may not think of West Texas when you think of wine, but you should. The High Plains grows 90% of Texas’ wine grapes. With a semi-arid climate similar to central Spain and the southern region of France, the conditions are ideal for growing wine grapes. With more than eight area wineries and four annual wine festivals, the High Plains is home to the vineyards, tasting rooms and award-winning wine for connoisseurs and amateurs alike. Thanks to our warm, dry climate, the High Plains is ideal for growing many varietals of wine grapes. Most notably, Spanish varietals like Tempranillo, Grenache, and Albarino flourish here. Italian grapes such as Sangiovese and Montepulciano as well as French varietals of Mataro and Shiraz also grow right here in West Texas. Don’t be fooled;…
