Why Mocktails Matter: A Sobering Surgeon General's Advisory

In early 2025, the U.S. Surgeon General released a groundbreaking advisory linking alcohol consumption to cancer risk.

Did you know that alcohol is the third leading preventable cause of cancer in the United States, following tobacco and obesity?

This new report underscores the importance of mindful choices, and we’re here to make it easier (and tastier) for you to embrace this change.

Find the Perfect Mocktail Near You

Our app now lets you search “mocktails” to uncover handpicked spots nationwide offering creative, healthy zero-proof options. Whether you’re committed to Dry January or just seeking a delicious alcohol-free alternative, you’ll find vibrant choices across our curated collection of healthy, sustainable eateries.

💡Healthy Tip: Look for less-sweet options made with natural sugars where the entire beverage features house-made and/or natural ingredients -- down to the botanicals and spirits! Commercial zero-proof spirits often contain preservatives like potassium sorbate and sodium benzoate mixed with ascorbic acid, which can be a concern when consumed often and/or for sensitive individuals.

Sodium benzoate and ascobic acid under the right combination of heat and light together can form benzene, a harmful carcinogen.
