1. Mint Julep Cocktail Party. One of the greatest traditions of the Kentucky Derby is making Mint Juleps. This tasty treat consists of Bourbon, mint and sugar.

2. Tom Cruise Movie Night. Okay, so I know you may be thinking, "what on Earth does Tom Cruise have to do with the Kentucky Derby?" Well, the famous actor lived in Louisville, Kentucky, home of the races, until he was in his mid-20s. Aside from a tribute to the city that holds all of the fun, movie night with your man could lead to some "Risky Business"... just sayin'.
3. Horseback Riding. Fun, adventurous and romantic, horseback riding is the perfect Derby-inspired date. Trotting on horseback with your significant other is sure to bring out the spirit of the races.
