Not so long ago, if you didn’t want to drink alcohol when you went out for a meal or a drink, you had to make do with water or soft drinks. Or you had to resort to “light” beers, which, to be honest, were nothing to write home about and had much more alcohol in them than today’s 0.0 beers. Non-alcoholic drinks in bars and restaurants used to be a rarity, but not anymore. Here is why non-alcoholic drinks are successful in bars and restaurants.
New drinking habits
It is a reality that our eating and leisure habits have evolved too. Now, as the new generations show us every day: it is more important to feel good, to have fun without artificial stimuli, and to take care of your body (and your brain). In short, what matters is being yourself and enjoying life without having to imitate others. In the last century, the alcohol (and tobacco) industry spent a lot of money on advertising, to make us believe that drinking alcohol and smoking were sophisticated options, even sexy.
We owe a lot to the Health authorities, led by the World Health Organisation. Firstly, they informed us for years about the dangers of alcohol (and tobacco) consumption. Later, they lobbied governments to force these industries to reduce their advertising, or even to ban it in some media.
Going out for a drink no longer means drinking alcohol. You go out to enjoy the company of friends, and to have intelligent conversations. To dance without awkwardness, to live life to the fullest, without disruption and scares. Without becoming vulnerable or looking like an idiot, which is what alcohol often does, even in very small quantities.
Non-alcoholic beverages in restaurants and bars
At bars and restaurants, offering quality, fun non-alcoholic drinks also means keeping up with the new trends. With those young people who are demanding a healthy lifestyle and who are drinking non-alcoholic wine, alcohol-free beer, and alcohol-free cocktails. At the moment, it is difficult to find options outside of non-alcoholic beers.
