Grab some friends and join us for a luxe happy hour, the perfect way to unwind after a long week or kick-off a weekend getaway in Colorado Springs! We’ve curated a lively and exclusive experience that features sample cocktails from four trendsetting destinations in downtown Colorado Springs.
Along our two-and-a-half hour journey together, you’ll meet with mixologists and bartenders who are passionate about their craft. You’ll learn about the origin of some of the spirits used, the history of some classic cocktails, and how bartenders today are breaking the mold and creating new flavors. Enjoy private demonstrations on how these libations come together.
The highlight of this tour are the four perfectly sized signature cocktails, each paired with a tasty and savory appetizer. You’ll visit a distillery-by-day, tasting room-by-night to try a vintage-style prohibition cocktail. A theme-shifting speakeasy will be serving up one of their innovative creations, and an Asian cyberpunk bar will wow you with their eccentric flavors. Finally, you’ll round out the experience in a dark and moody lounge that will make you think you’ve wound up in Edgar Allen Poe’s living room.
A delight for all of your senses, this tour will pull back the curtain on a growing trend in Colorado Springs and help you discover a few new favorites!

We feature seriously good food. We don’t pick out the cheapest thing on the menu or give you a sample on a toothpick. Our food and drink pairings are born out of one-on-one meetings with chefs and owners to ensure we’re featuring signature dishes.
We strongly encourage each of our guests to review our regularly updated “COVID-19 Updates & Safety Procedures” page for a full overview of what we are doing to keep our guests, our partners, and our staff safe.
Unfortunately on this tour, we are unable to accommodate any dietary restrictions.
Of course! If you would like to join the tour but do not intend to drink, or you only want certain pairings, we would be happy to get you a non-alcoholic substitute including a soda, ice tea, or water. Please let your Tour Leader know at the start of your tour so they can make accommodations for you.
Leaving a 15-20% gratuity for your Tour Leader is customary, especially if you had a great time and wish to recognize them for a job well done! We recognize that most people don’t carry cash these days, so our guides are able to accept credit cards at the end of the tour. *NEW! You now have the option of pre-paying your gratuity with your ticket purchase!
All cocktails will be served in half-size portions. For the purpose of this tour, we believe in quality, variety, and enjoying each sip in our short time together.
We’ve developed a delicious itinerary and have set the menu and drink pairings in advance with each of our restaurant partners. Because of this, we do not allow a la carte ordering. You are always welcome to return to a destination after the tour to try whatever may have tempted your taste buds!
There are four small savory appetizers served on The Springs Signature Cocktail Tour. Though you will be served food at every location, is not likely enough to be a dinner substitute.
