Just because it’s not January and not March doesn’t mean that you have to stop your sober, curious lifestyle! Limiting alcohol consumption has several health benefits, including lowering alcohol-related symptoms like headaches, heartburn, indigestion, and stomach upsets.
While drinking may not be socially popular, mocktails are better for your gut and mental health. They ease stomach irritation and support nutrient absorption, colon health, and balance. Aside from the diversity of ingredients and flavors to enjoy, you’ll also experience less sugar and calories and less exposure to the ramifications of drunk driving.
From gut-loving ingredients like probiotics to fruity and flavorful embellishments, mocktails are increasingly offering a great solution to those who are tired of drinking alcohol or can’t drink it for health reasons. Check out some of our favorite recipes from the Mindful Mocktail below so you can make them at home while entertaining your guests.
