Dry July Day 11 - A little ritual goes a long way!
/
It’s Day 11 and we’re creating beautiful rituals today!
What To Drink When You’re Not Drinking?
For many women, the ritual of a cold glass of white wine at the end of the day is hard to give up - especially since old-school alcohol free options have tended to be a sweet substitute more reminiscent of grape juice than a dry pinot.
Thankfull that’s changing and this Cuvee Blanc from Wander + Found is proof! Read Sarah’s review here.
Dry July Success Tip: Meet the Ritual & Give Yourself Permission
A lot of the time, our evening beverage is as much about the ritual as anything else – when we pour that glass of wine, we go through a comforting set of actions and allow ourselves a little time for ourselves before the evening rush takes over. Is it possible that you can re-create the ritual in an alcohol free way? Try pouring your sparkling water into your crystal champagne flute, or giving yourself the same permission to sit down with a cup of tea as you would a glass of pinot. Whatever the ritual is, don’t give up on it just because what’s in your glass doesn’t have alcohol in it – in fact, elevate it if you can! SGCF team member Helena found that sitting down with a glass of kombucha in her favourite Waterford crystal champagne flute gave her the same sense of relaxation as prosecco did.
Tip: don’t underestimate the importance of ritual! Sometimes it really is about the fancy glass and elevated moment.
