Vanessa Lachey said: 'Summer is my family's favorite time to travel together, and the best part about this summer is Chocolate Milk Happy Hour at Holiday Inn! It's a fun way for families to unlock those lasting memories together and enjoy a new twist on the classic afternoon snack.'

Twenty Holiday Inn hotels across the U.S. will be hosting Chocolate Milk Happy Hour, and a list of participating hotels can be found at holidayinn.com/milkandcookies. The brand will also host two Chocolate Milk Happy Hour pop-up events during outdoor movie nights, the first in Millennium Park in Chicago in late June.

Ms. Lachey will greet guests at the Chicago event while sharing family travel tips over the yummy treats.

Chocolate Milk Happy Hour days and times vary by location and will run through early August. In addition to Otis Spunkmeyer Cookies and the highly nutritious and lactose free fairlife milk, participating hotels will also have an area for guests to take photos with milk- and cookie-themed props and share the fun on social media.
