As a heat wave burns its way across the United States, cool, refreshing drinks must be at the ready. That’s why we think @ForbesTravelGuide’s most popular hotel post last month was an enticing cocktail being poured into a martini glass at The St. Regis New York.
The Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star hotel’s King Cole Bar is a destination unto itself — it’s the birthplace of the blood mary. Everyone from Salvador Dalí and John Lennon to Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio has sipped drinks at this sophisticated bar, which remains a popular spot.
