If you’ve ever wished you could sit at the bar with someone who has the best stories, this one is for you. In Bar Cart, we catch up with Keegan Labrador, the Beverage Director for The Culinary Creative Group and the kind of bartender you hope is working when you walk into Mister Oso. He shares the funniest thing he’s overheard, the drink order that still confuses him (warm beer), and the cocktail he swears we should all be ordering next: the Chilcano, Peru’s answer to a Moscow Mule. Read the full Bar Cart feature in our Winter 2026 issue. #CherryCreekMagazine #BarCart #DenverFoodAndDrink #CherryCreek #ColoradoLifestyle

Galentine’s, but make it unforgettable! Bring a little gift to swap, build-your-own cocktails (interactive is the vibe), one hilariously competitive game that pulls everyone in, and a cute photo moment for the camera roll. Cheers to the girls! Floral Backdrop: @partypetalsdenver Photo Booth: @photoboothoftherockies #Galentines #CheeryCreekMagazine #HostingIdeas #PartyTips #Valentine

A neighborhood runs on style, yes. But it’s really powered by introductions. Meet Esther Lee Leach, our latest Gal About Town. Founder of The ELL Network, she’s the kind of connector who can move from boardrooms to culture with equal ease, and make everyone in the room feel like they belong. Her daily non-negotiable: one good thought, then a hug for her son (the sweetest reset). Her Cherry Creek happy place: Le Colonial. Her roots: Saint Lucia, and a deep love of community that shows up everywhere she goes.

This year, I am stepping into a new chapter.
But not because life was easy. 
I failed hard and through it, I won big.
I was stretched, humbled, cracked open. I lost people I thought would walk with me forever.
And I made room for the ones who truly see me. I learned that growth doesn’t always look like forward motion.
Sometimes it looks like heartbreak.
Like starting again.
Like trusting yourself when the outcome is uncertain. I found faith. Real, unshakable faith.
The kind that holds you when nothing else does. I learned how strong my body is when I listen instead of punish.
How powerful my voice is when I stop doubting it. I honor where I’ve been, but I’m not carrying it into what comes next. 
This year, I choose alignment over proving.
Peace over pressure.
Purpose over fear. This is the season I rise.
Wiser. Softer. Stronger than ever. 
And I’m walking into it with my whole heart. Happy New Year’s Eve, friends! Wishing you clarity, comfort and growth. #CherryCreekMag #cherrycreekmagazine #newyearsresolution #newyearseve #2026

Pinkies up, indeed. ☕✨ Gather your girlfriends and escape for an afternoon of Holiday Tea at Local Jones.

Curated by Pastry Chef Liliana Myers, this is afternoon tea with a modern point of view. Cozy, indulgent, and absolutely worth reserving time for this winter! #cherrycreekmagazine #localjones #denverholidays #cherrycreeknorth #reels
