The Non-Alcoholic Movement
Undoubtedly, drinking alcohol has come a long way, forming an essential part of our social life. Drinking is everywhere, it helps us socialize, decompress, and cope with the stress usually encountered in our day-to-day activities. However, after a season of mulled wine and other cheering activities with family and friends, many of us would welcome the chance to try a “sober curious” lifestyle.
As people become more interested in wellness and a desire for a healthier lifestyle the idea of mindful drinking or becoming fully sober has given rise to the non-alcoholic movement, a category that has been rapidly growing over the last few years. Mindful drinking doesn’t mean no drinking, it means being more aware of your choices and allows you the opportunity to stay present when socializing, so you not only enjoy those social interactions but also remember all those great conversations 😉
It’s not easy to walk into a social scene with friends and only have soda or fruit juice to choose from, with all the non-alcoholic options now available everyone can and should feel included. There are tons of non-alcoholic beverages out there and it can be overwhelming to figure out where to start, which is why we are featuring several trusted brands on our site.
