Apogee Lounge in sunny Chicago is one of the city’s best bets for killer views, and overpriced cocktails that are mostly just ‘gram worthy.

YOLO- Apogee Lounge is an excuse to spend money

 Drinks will set you back $13 and up (U.S.), with the top baller choice costing $400! but simmer down, it serves 6!

The woodsy palette and golden-hued lighting are flattering and mostly make me want to redo my living room. Post mod is my jam! Drinks come coconut-clad, or crested with cotton candy. Both were entirely regrettable, the sugar crash is only outdone by the crippling hangover.
