Hello, darling heart, and welcome to the drink less, live better podcast.
-:
This is the podcast that helps you to see that drinking less doesn't need to be stressful, lonely, or boring. Boring.
-:
I'm your host, Sarah Williamson, and I decided to have a year alcohol free as a little life experiment and haven't looked back.
-:
With my experience and training, I now help other people with their alcohol free or drink less adventures.
-:
You can find out more and sign up to my 5 day drink less challenge at drink less live better dot com.
-:
I'm here to tell you that you can relax, connect and have fun without alcohol in your life.
-:
Join me here each week to find out how.
-:
Having had my book launch this week in Covent Garden, London at the most fabulous Club Soda tasting rooms, which is a glorious
-:
low and no alcohol bar and sales room.
-:
It reminded me that I don't very often talk enough about the range of amazing alcohol free drinks that are out there.
-:
If you're lucky enough to have an alcohol free bar or shop near you please use it often, and if you haven't but you can find
-:
a place that you love that delivers alcohol free or low alcohol drinks online then use them.
-:
Here is a list of my favourite summer alcohol free drinks.
-:
At this time of year, if I'm visiting bars or pubs, my favourite alcohol free drinks are ginger beer or lime and soda water
-:
in a really tall glass with loads of ice.
-:
If I'm feeling a little bit fancier, I might enjoy one of the new really nice flavoured tonic waters, and I may or may not
-:
enjoy it with an alcohol free gin if the pub or the bar sells that.
-:
If it's a tonic water I always ask for it to be served in one of those nice gin glasses, the same as everybody else in the
-:
bar would be using, and I certainly want ice and a slice with it.
-:
If I'm at home at this time of year and looking for something a little bit more interesting than water I might drink an iced tea.
-:
I don't mind buying iced tea, but I also really enjoy making it myself.
-:
I choose my flavoured tea bags and chill it it in the fridge overnight so it's ready for the next morning.
-:
I really enjoyed fruit waters at this time of year.
-:
Berries, cherries, citrus fruits, and, of course, some delicious herbs are lovely steeped in water.
-:
Kombuchas have really come on in the last few years.
-:
I am enjoying all of the different ones that are coming onto the market.
-:
The new flavors, the new types, there's so much range out there, and it's such an interesting drink to try.
-:
I recognize that it's not everybody's cup of tea, but if you like it it is a great drink to enjoy.
-:
I enjoy buying fancy squashes in interesting flavors and serving those with either still or sparkling water.
-:
I think the range of alcohol free sparkling wines is getting better and better, and if it's a celebratory occasion I'm really
-:
happy to chill one of those in the fridge and enjoy in a champagne glass.
-:
I'm more and more enjoying the alcohol free beers and lagers that are available. The range is becoming better.
-:
Your local supermarket is bound to stock something that you enjoy, and of course there will always be mocktails.
-:
There's a time and a place for a mocktail on a night out or at a barbecue in somebody's garden.
-:
I really really enjoy the Jomo subscription box, j o m o, joy of missing out. It's a fabulous UK based company.
-:
They, supply a range of delicious alcohol free drinks in a beautiful box with a fabulous magazine each month, and it's a total
-:
joy and surprise to unwrap every month.
-:
