Wine with Thanksgiving Dinner, eggnog by the fire for Christmas, and champagne on New Yearâs Day â itâs no secret that celebrating the holiday calls for a bit of booze. Now that the holiday season, and all the opportunities for festive drinks, are over, youâve probably decided that itâs time to take a much-needed break from alcohol. If so, youâll be joining the many 20somethings who are sober curious, and have pledged to participate in Dry January.Â
ICYMI, Dry January is a month-long break from drinking alcohol; itâs a time to relax from all the booze youâve had over the holidays and adjust back to your regular drinking habits. It even has many benefits like the promotion of better sleep, weight loss, and increased energy. Plus, itâll save you a little bit of money right after spending almost everything you had on Christmas gifts and holiday ‘fits.Â
You could get through this month by drinking soda, juice, or just plain old water. But who said that Dry January canât be just as fun as any other month? Of course, TikTok already has a ton of mocktails that are bound to make Dry January just as festive as the holiday season.
