As you may be aware, the Kentucky Derby is this weekend. If you happen to be in New Orleans instead of at Churchill Downs, make sure that you catch ‘the most exciting two minutes in sports‘ at Hot Tin’s Kentucky Derby Watch Party.
Hot Tin is the rooftop bar at the Pontchartrain Hotel. The bar is inviting the guests to don their best seersucker suits, linen dresses, fascinators, and fedoras for the soiree. They will also be offering up some excellent Derby inspired cocktails. You’ll find $12 Mint Juleps and $10 Old Forester Sazeracs; Old Forester Kentucky Mules; Sonoma Cutrer Rosé Frosé and Herradura Margaritas.
However, if you can’t make it to the race or Hot Tin’s Kentucky Derby Watch Party and you plan on watching the race at home, Hot Tin offers you this recipe to enjoy. The Wolf in Lambs Clothing is a smooth gin, lemon juice, and honey syrup cocktail that you’ll keep going back to even when the race is over.
How do you plan to watch the Kentucky Derby? Let us know in the comment section below. Enjoy!
