As the indulgent holiday season draws to a close and a New Year begins, this is a great time to reflect on our habits and plot a journey of self-improvement. For those looking to totally reset or just take a break from alcohol, Dry January offers the perfect frame for a healthier lifestyle. However, just because you’re hitting the pause button on alcohol doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice the joy of sipping something sparkling that goes with your meal. Mocktails provide a bubbly, alcohol-free alternative to keep you committed to your wellness goals. Below, we’ve curated a weekly mocktail-to-meal pairing to keep you curious and committed to Dry January:
