If you (like me) are craving a moment of clarity (especially after Christmas celebrations), participating in Dry January is the way to go. The month-long challenge invites you to temporarily bid farewell to alcohol in hopes of self-discovery and improved health, which are both very beneficial to your general well-being.
Though serviceable to yourself, Dry January can become even more of a challenge to not feel left out when all your pals are drinking. Mocktails can be great, but the non-alcoholic beverages scene is growing in popularity, meaning you don’t have to actually bartend your own sips each round.Check out these 9 non-alcoholic canned drinks that are great for toting to your friends’ places or seasonal parties!
Aura Bora x Graza Olive Oil Martini
This non-alcoholic canned drink presents an unconventional infusion of olive oil and citrus. It passed our taste test with flying colors because it is oh-so flavorful, but still balanced. We love that it's not marketed as a 'mocktail,' either – it doesn't leave anyone out, making it the perfect companion for Dry January.
Dos Equis Lime & Salt Zero
Crafted to emulate the flavors of a smooth Mexican cerveza, this non-alcoholic canned drink is bursting with notes of fresh lime and salt. Pair a can with some homemade grilled chicken tacos, and you're ready to tackle anything.
Athletic Brewing Co. Cerveza Atletica
This NA brew has *all* the hops with zero alcohol (and the subsequent hangover). It's a refreshing sip that will leave you feeling cool and confident this Dry or Damp January! This non-alcoholic canned drink is especially great for those with more active lifestyles or fitness goals, because it allows enough room for a casual drink without setting back any progress.
Mockly Love Bite Booze-Free Cocktail
The non-alcoholic canned drinks that Mockly offers don't skimp on real flavor. This tonic in particular highlights ginger, pomegranate, lemon, apple, and rosemary to emulate that of a cocktail, but there's no booze.
Mingle Mocktails Cucumber Melon Mojito
Fruit juices and botanicals form each sip of this bubbly non-alcoholic canned drink. The Mingle brand has several other drink varieties that are meant to emulate traditional cocktails like cosmos and mules – 0% ABV-style.
Ghia Ginger Le Spritz
Ghia leans heavily into Mediterranean apéritif culture without going heavy on the alcohol. Each of their zero-proof cans can be sipped alone or with their original Non-Alcoholic Apéritiffor a light and dry drink anytime. We love this can because the design feels particularly fancy!
RationAle Hazy IPA
This unique IPA from RationAle Brewing doesn't have any alcohol in the can, but is full on flavor. It delivers citrusy, fruitiness alongside hints of hops that still aid in a fun time! We drink this can on the regular – just make sure it's super cold for maximum enjoyment.
De Soi Apéritif Starter Pack
Katy Perry's NA canned drink brand, De Soi, has tons of options for Dry January. Founded alongside award-winning master distiller, Morgan McLachlan, their variety of aperitif flavors range from rosé to champagne – with none of the alcohol. This easy starter pack serves as a nice introduction to De Soi with four different profiles to sip on.
hiyo Peach Mango
If you like sweet drinks, this non-alcoholic canned drink is the one for you! It's flowing with tastes of peach and mango alongside organic adaptogens, natural nootropics, and functional botanicals that have stress-relieving and mood-boosting properties that won't leave you feeling yucky the next morning.
Recess Zero Proof Lime "Margarita"
When it comes to drinks, you really can't beat a margarita. But, this Dry January, branch out and try this NA version that's ideal for social gatherings and tailgates.
RSRV Collective Botanica
This non-alcoholic canned drink crafted with kenshō is reminiscent of a traditional gin and tonic. Where it strays from the status quo, though, is its zero-proof properties that still leave you feeling refreshed.
White Claw 0% Alcohol
White Claw found that 69% of people who drink alcohol – including 81% of Gen Z-ers and 78% of millennials – are interested in a “sober curious” or “damp” lifestyle in the new year. That's why they recently launched a 0% ABV product to target those who want to drink less or not at all in 2024!
White Claw 0% Alcohol comes in Black Cherry Cranberry, Mango Passion Fruit, Peach Orange Blossom, and Lime Yuzu.
United Sodas of America
United Sodas of America, aside from being drop-dead gorgeous, offer a healthy alternative to alcohol to drink during Dry January. Every can has zero chemicals or artificial flavoring, is low-calorie, but full on flavor.
Stars like Hailey and Justin Beiber, Whitney Cummings, Kourtney Kardashian, Lisa Vanderpump, and Trixie Mattel are true fans of these non-alcoholic canned drinks!
Shiner Rode0 Golden Brew
Shiner just introduced their first-ever non-alcoholic canned drink, the Shiner Rode0. This zero-proof drink tastes just like a a classic American lager! If you're craving a sip full of malty, hoppy notes, this is your perfect pick for Dry Jan.
Brew Dog x Sunnyside 'Bright AF' IPA
This cheerful NA can still brings the fun! The 'Bright AF' IPA from Brew Dog and Sunnyside's collaboration is only 20 calories and 2.3g of carbs per can, too. Sip on the notes of citrus, pine, and floral to discover the yumminess yourself.
