Saturday we celebrated my birthday - it started with a fabulous dinner @ Hillstone with the ladies followed by one of my absolute favorite ways to do Denver. This little tradition is something that Nick created a few months back and I could think of no better way to ring in my 28th year. Let me introduce you to Hotel Bar Night. How does this work? You hop from hotel bar to hotel bar and whoever picks the next hotel bar has to drink the 'Signature' drink at that place. What is a signature drink? A 'Denver Ricky', a 'Sleigh Ride', a 'Legspreader'... the list goes on. Typically, just that person has to stomach the drink (and they range from fruity to milky) but this time, since I'm friends with a bunch of rock stars, there was no shortage of sugar & food coloring flowing.
Just a note - this is probably the only time you'll see a group of men standing around with pink and blue drinks.
First up, Embassy Suites and their signature drink the 'Jamaican 10-Speed' (basically, the equivalent to drinking sunscreen)
The guys decided to pass on the Hawaiian Tropic drink and stick with beer.
At the Four Seasons. Did you know they made Zach's margarita with mexican gasoline?
The result of too many pink drinks: my lips & Zach's face.
Moving on to the Marriott Courtyard...
And folks, my personal favorite - the Crowne Plaza. We took a pedi-cab here and even invited our driver in to share a cocktail with us. Unfortunately for us tho, our waitress was a sour puss and wanted nothing to do with the signature drink idea :( While I was up at the bar trying to work my magic - I made friends with these two gentlemen who I found out were also celebrating March birthdays... these pictures show me explaining to them how the signature drink & hotel bar night works and then here they are trying their hardest to convince the bartender to make us one...
Stephanie: 'No signature drink here.'
Nick: 'WHAT?!?!?'
