Booze is out and “sober curiosity” is in as people around the world participate in Dry January and voluntarily abstain from alcohol for the month.
Whether it’s for a New Year’s resolution or for health reasons, Americans have jumped aboard the Dry January bandwagon, which originated in Britain.

ReplyDeleteScrew that!
ReplyDeleteI have been drinking alcohol removed (0.05 percent alcohol) wine and beer for about 18 years now. I always felt arkward when ordering so you can imagine how I feel now about non-alcohol drinks being popular. They say you save money by not drinking regular alcohol but that is not true. A bottle of decent non- alhocol wine cost the same if not more than regular wine. Same is true for beer. The process to reduce alcohol in liquor is expensive. One draw back for establishments - with regular alcohol you drink more than non-alcohol. Cheers! 😁
ReplyDeleteTo reduce the alcohol content just add water, nothing expensive about that
