New Year's Eve is just a day away and Andy Cohen could not be more excited. Once again, the talk show host will join Anderson Cooper on stage in Times Square for CNN's raucous “New Year's Eve Live” celebration. And while the pair may not have been able to imbibe in 2022 , booze returned to the program last year — and it will once again be in attendance this Dec. 31.

When it comes to Champagne, it doesn’t get much more elite than Krug. Synonymous with luxury and splendor, Krug is a prestigious Champagne that has savvy drinkers worldwide buying it for special occasions. The only downside for many consumers? The price. Rather than producing a standard non-vintage offering or only declaring certain vintages, every batch of Krug is different, with each year’s wine made with a varying percentage of reserve wines. As such, each wine will taste slightly different from its predecessor, with the house focusing more on quality than producing in a consistent house style.

Founded in Dublin in 1759, it’s hard to think of a beer with more cultural cache than Guinness. With an estimated 1.8 billion pints sold every year — that’s about 10 million glasses daily — the Irish stout is undoubtedly one of the most popular beers on the planet. But what many don’t know about the brewer is that it also produces a lager that, once upon a time, was just as popular as the brand’s beloved nitro stout. Introduced in 1960, Harp Lager was created as a means of competing in a burgeoning lager market in the U.K.

Golf is easily one of the most popular hobbies in the United States.

In 2023, over 531 million rounds of golf were played in the U.S. according to the PGA Tour — the fourth straight year when more than 500 million rounds were played. And while traversing all 18 holes, players are bound to get thirsty. That's where the beverage cart comes in.
