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 Lake County Libation Trail Month/Check In Challenge running all of February. The VLC Staff picks their tippy-top sips.

Guests who “Check-In” at five or more locations between Feb. 1-28 will be eligible for a drawing, where 50 people will win a new Libation Trail Roster Shirt. The long-sleeved 100% cotton shirt lists all the Libation Trail partner locations to visit this year. Once 50 names are drawn after March 1, winners who respond to email notification with their name and mailing address within seven days will be awarded a shirt to wear proudly.
