Let’s face it, when the Visit Lake County staff isn’t promoting travel and tourism, they definitely like to put back a few libations.
This tasty Tuesday we celebrate the suds, vino and spirit makers as we rev up for the upcoming Check-in Challenge running April 9-18. The VLC Staff picks their tippy-top sips.

Here’s a toast to tasty Tuesdays and the top three drinks selected by the VLC staff.
