Get the door, it's the liquor store
Rocklin is located about 25 minutes northeast of Sacramento, in that hallowed place with one foot in the mountains and... one in the central valley. Indeed, getting to lake Tahoe is a mere 2-hour jaunt, and hopping to the other side of California is about 1 hour 45 minutes. You’re truly within reach of everything. Close to home, however, lies the wonders of Sacramento’s wine country and all the restaurants, activities, microbreweries, and perks of life around the capital. There’s a lot of life in Rocklin, and you get the sense this place didn’t just spring up in the last 50 years as an opportunistic suburb. In fact, Rocklin came into being in the early 1800s. The California Gold Rush and the fur trade brought settlers into the area, where supplies of gold and granite allowed them to make it a permanent home. The 1862 Pacific Railroad Act gave the town a stop on the transcontinental railroad, which caused the population to expand rapidly. Today, the population is a comfortable 57,000. Even a town of 57,000 needs a white-glove booze delivery service, though. The Drizly app lets you order the finest beers, wines, and liquors from one online shop and have them at your door in 60 minutes or less.
