I was NOT a alcoholic (isn't that what everyone says?) but it ran in my family and I was starting to head that direction, so I cut it out entirely. Some sections are great but not for me, like the social strategies section (I'm already an ass and can tell people to f off lol), but how to manage triggers and temptations was so important to me that l've already lessoned to that section twice. The recipes are to die for, the margarita mocktail (I think its called), 10/10.
Great book, recommend fully.

Thank god they actually taste good

This year, I have been working towards a healthier lifestyle. I enjoyed the chapters on mocktail recipes and non-alcoholic drinks. It allows you to offer non-alcoholic alternatives at dinner parties and have nice drinks while socialising outside. The audiobook was engaging and covered important topics like tracking your financial savings and how to navigate social situations. This is certainly a useful guide if you want to move from alcoholic drinks to non-alcoholic ones.

The book gave me really simple tips that made it easier. One of my favorites was finding fun mocktail recipes. I tried a few at home, and they were delicious!

After three failed attempts at Dry January, this book finally helped me succeed! The practical recipes kept me from feeling deprived at social gatherings (They were also popular at my sister's birthday). I slept better and actually saved money to buy things I'd been eyeing. The mental fog lifting was unexpected but welcome—I finally finished that work certification I'd been putting off. Perfect for anyone curious about taking a drinking break without the boredom!
