Alt City Soda Puts The Spirit Back Into Sober Living
I gave up drinking at the beginning of the COVID pandemic partially as a challenge to myself, thinking that we'd all be inside for "maybe a week or two", and that I probably shouldn't drink myself silly during that time.
But as the pandemic rolled on for months and then later a one year mark, I kept my pledge to stay alcohol free and it's honestly made me feel happier, healthier, and better than I did before. But, moving to Beer City USA has limited the fun I can have when it comes to creative drinks outside of just pop.
So, when I discovered Alt City Beverage Company in the Downtown Market, I knew I'd finally found my place.
Alt City specializes in unique drinks, specifically Mocktails (Aka: a cocktail with no alcohol) and their menu is unmatched.
My fiancé got their take on a mule, which sips just like you're having the classic bourbon drink, and I got their strawberry aloe cooler. And to be honest, I never thought drinking the plant I use for my sunburns, but it is quickly becoming one of my favorite drinks of all time.
and if you're looking for a nip that tastes like a cocktail, but doesn't give you that nasty hangover (or maybe you have a pregnant loved one who wants to participate, but can't partake) they offer several "fake" spirits to help you re-create some of your favorite drinks at home.
So if you're trying to drink less (or like me, not at all) you should have one of their incredible creations the next time you find yourself in the Downtown Market.
Cheers - and congrats on your life choices if you're living that sober life like me!
