If you're teetotal, how do you treat yourself at the end of the day?

[TBHno]

I want to cut down on my drinking. Since lockdown started, I've been drinking 4-5 nights a week. I'm not addicted, it's mostly out of boredom.

Anyway, I am determined to get my drinking down to once a week. Any tips?

I treated myself to a Coca Cola tonight, which did work.

Any other ideas?

I thrive on bitter lemon I love it and have bottles all over the house, I also enjoy Robinson’s creations as well.

I’ve been replacing my wine with a posh hot chocolate or a coke & grenadine.

Have also found some brilliant alcohol free replacements

When I did one year no beer I got into kombucha. It’s refreshing like a beer is but nicer. I am a wine drinker.

A little bit of good chocolate. I have a stash that I do not share! Excellent hot chocolate can be a real treat too. There is a market gap for soft drinks for adults as so may of them are way too sweet.

Oh and I also like a tonic without gin. Ice and lemon. That’s refreshing too.

Chocolate or other sweets treat such as ice lolly

To drink I like some of the Innocent fruit smoothies and occasionally caffeine free fizzy pop

I go to bed. It easier not to drink and eat there.

I’m not teetotal by a long way but over the last few years have been less and less bothered by it. My evening go to is a very chocolatey hot chocolate

Whatever drink you go with, put it in a wine/gin glass. I thought it was the wine I enjoyed but it was just the idea of it.

I’m not teetotal but rarely drink. My treat at the end of each night is Pepsi max, from a can too so it feels extra decadent

Junk food and loads of tea and coffee. I'm probably fatter than I would be if I just drank again but just don't really enjoy drinking and over time don't miss it at all.

I had a mince pie and a nice cup of coffee.

Cake. Any cake.

Kombucha
Aecorn and tonic
Seedlip and tonic
AF beer
Thatchers 0%

Been teetotal for two months now and these are my go-tos.

Chocolate, lots of chocolate.

0% alcohol Becks Blue.

What do you usually drink?

Lime and soda
Alcohol free Peronni & Lime
Twinings Breakfast Tea with Milk
Noodles
Frozen banana - tastes like ice-cream

I haven't drank for 3 years now,I reward myself at the end of the week with a Chinese on a Friday night rock and roll 😂

If I fancy something other than tea or water I have one can of Diet Coke it works for me but I just don't like alcohol I guess you might need something better if your trying to actively come away from alcohol.

I’ve just had an AF kopperburg which was pretty tasty. I’m partial to a ginless tonic too. Or diet lemonade. Anything with lots of ice really - and maybe a bit of fruit.

Different low or non alcohol beers/ciders from dry drinker website or ocado. I was always a wine drinker (too much of one!) but I love non alcoholic beers and still not keen on non-alc wines. Thatchers cider like Luna and cans of Bavaria 0 per cent. I gave up completely a year ago and this stuff has got me through.

Caffeine free tea and chocolate digestives

Tea! I absolutely love tea.

I'm in the North and working (well, studying) from home. It looks like our lockdown will tighten on Monday, which means I'm in the house all day, and I don't have to be up the next morning...

I usually drink gin and tonic, or fruity ciders

Herbal tea

I try to low-carb a bit, so a light Ginger Beer and peanuts is my treat
