Ginger Ninja cider by Two Towns Cider. God I love their cider. Also, now there's no booze in the house. Hoorah! Liver will rest for January.

My liver needs a rest in January but if I tried to drink all the booze in the house I think it would be resting permanently!

I sent most all of it with my parents when they left. The single can of Ginger Ninja and one bottle of wine ducked the purge though, so SirB and I finished them off today.

A little orange juice, a splash of pom, topped with sparkling mineral water.

Doing a sober month (minimum), and this scratches the "fancy drink and bartending" itch.

"inherited" beer. ILs didn't want a couple Budweisers that got left at their house. Not my general preference, but a nice treat after a long hike today. I'm not too proud or too rich to turn down free beer, especially while doing an uber frugal month =)

Have you tired and aeropress or mokapot?  Probably the next best thing instead of buying a $500 (or is it $1000+?) espresso machine.

Sparkling water with a splash of vanilla and bourbon cask aged bitters. Non alcoholic, and scratches the 'fancy booze' itch for much cheaper.

Coopers Sparkling Ale. A great big 750ml bottle of it. (about 25.3oz)

Nice stuff.

Followed by Hawkers Pilsner. A nice beer, and local too :)

It is a tap water day for me as well. Although the last two hours I've been fighting coffee temptation. It's getting late enough though, the urge will go away soon hopefully haha.

Homemade "I'm sick" latte:

Ginger and turmeric tea, made by boiling water w/ chopped up root for 5-10 minutes

Strain the root and add:

Honey
Lemon
Coconut oil
MCT oil
Splash of whiskey

Blend with an immersion blender and feel like you're not sick.

Does anyone have a substitute for white wine that actually satisfies? I like ginger ale but only drink diet soda and they don't cut the mustard.

House Red wine at a United Airlines lounge. Not the greatest ever but a free perk from my United Miles credit card! I've had this card for a couple years but haven't taken advantage of the Lounge pass before, it's really nice, but definitely not worth the full cost...

I am drinking mead, made from our apples and a neighbor’s honey. Another neighbor makes it, and splits the batch three ways between him, and the two donors of products. I don’t love it but it is OK.

How do you know if it's apple flavored mead or honey flavored apple wine?

Like a non-alcoholic substitute?

I mostly drink sparkling water from my soda stream.

If I want to get super fancy, I toss in a nuun strawberry lemonade tablet.  (electrolytes)

Some people put bitters in seltzer or club soda. I am unfamiliar with them. Can anyone comment on what is tasty, how you use them and what flavors or brands you use? I am a babe in the woods with bitters. I also have a soda stream and hate all the flavors they offer to make soda.

I would like something closer to a biting ginger ale. Something that stings the tongue in a bubbly seltzer, club soda type drink with a hint of sweetness.
