Creator's Tips & Advice

Always request exactly what type of spirit you want from the bar to avoid cheaper substitutes
Look at the drinks menus and plan your package based on what you drink
Take cans of soda and bottles of water to put in your fridge for later
Use the phone app for ordering drinks as paper menus may not return
