So it’s almost January….
Dry January is rolling around once again, and while we fully support all who participate, we also have a handful of thoughts for those who might rather make it a ~damp~ January. Good luck to you as you work toward this new year goal, we will be waiting on the shelf if you’re looking for a celebratory toast when February rolls around.
Make it a Damp January
Lucky for you, we have a lot of options for cutting down on alcohol consumption. For starters, our Real Fruit Moscato™ collection is low-ABV, coming in at 6.8%. These refreshingly real sippers have a hint of bubble and are a great addition to any day.
Enjoy a wine spritz to achieve a lower-ABV. Try one of our Real Fruit Moscatos™, Dreamberry, or Cosmoberry over ice, with an effervescence of choice. Add a squeeze of citrus, splash of juice, or a fun straw to elevate the experience.
Decide on certain days that you’re allowed to treat yourself to a drink. Pretty simple, but a great way to stay on track (so long as you stick to it). Keep it fun and experiment with mocktail recipes for off-days, and treat yourself on your selected day(s). Whether you prefer an after-work drink or to sip back & relax on the weekends, you can choose an option that fits your lifestyle best.
Creative Alternatives (that still support healthy habits!)
Try combining a damp January effort with a simple, overall lifestyle or wellness goal...find a few ideas below!
Add a short and sweet fitness regimen to your day. Squeeze some stretches in every morning before work, or fit a little cardio into your evening routine.
Stock up on produce! Throw some berries in with lunch, or roast an extra veggie with your dinner. Believe us, we know the value of real fruit.
Establish a morning or bedtime routine. Read a book instead of endlessly scrolling, or go for an early walk instead of hitting snooze (easier said than done, we know).
Meal plan at the start of each week, for the whole week. Make one grocery list and get it all in one trip.
Promote a positive mindset for 2025. Give a daily compliment or positive affirmation (yourself included!). Or, write down something you’re grateful for each day and compile it somewhere that you can see your growing list.
Spend quality time with family and friends. Brainstorm date night ideas and—get this—actually plan a few. Host a family game night. Take a weekend trip or a staycation. Meet a friend for a treat yourself day. Try a new recipe. Have a cozy, comfy movie marathon.
