For those of us who are Dry January curious but don’t want to cut out alcohol completely, we have some suggestions for a delightfully Damp January.

For pours on the lower end of the spectrum, pop a bottle of artisan cider. Eve’s Cidery in the Finger Lakes is making incredible sparkling ciders using local apples that come in under 9% ABV. Northern Spy has refreshing notes of clover, lemon, and plum while Autumn Gold has aromas of honey and dried herbs.

Bitters are a fantastic way to take a mocktail to the next level, adding the distinctive flavors of some of your favorite cocktails. The Bitter Truth Aromatic Bitters will bring complex spice to the mix or grab Orange Bitters for a citrus, marmalade twist. They’re also delicious in seltzer!

A wonderful way to enjoy a glass of wine with a friend without committing to a whole bottle is canned wine. We have a wonderful selection of sparkling and still, red, white, and rosé, even orange wines in a can! Each can is two perfect pours, come in and pick up a variety.
