We can all agree that these past few years have been anything but a breeze. Alcohol consumption has been at an all-time high – and specifically when it comes to drinking at home.

According to a Morning Consult poll, one in 4 millennials and nearly 1 in 5 Gen X’ers said they had upped their alcohol intake during the pandemic. 

Even though now is probably the time to focus on being our healthiest, it’s so easy to turn to alcohol at the end the day to wind down. While we can easily argue that a big glass fo wine may help with our mental health, we all know that we’ve never regretted saying “no” to a drink. And lucky for us, there’s some pretty solid beverage options that can help us make that healthier choice. 

We recently experimented with a variety of non-alcoholic beverages to put their stress-busting and mood enhancing claims to the test. And after giving them a shot, we were honestly impressed. 

If you’re looking to cut back on alcohol, find a healthy way to de-stress, or if you’re already on the sober side, check out our favorite, non-alcoholic beverage brands for a healthier you. Non Alcoholic Beverage Brands
