Mocktails for Dry January? Groundbreaking. Branded Content Editor Stephanie here, and Dry January is something I look forward to every year. Did you know? Dry January is a health movement that encourages folks to abstain from alcohol for 31 days to reset their minds + bodies.

Interested in trying it? Here are 3 tips to set you up for success:

1. Know why you’re doing it

Bonus points if you write it down.

2. Choose substitute beverages

One of my go-to substitutions is anything Buchi — their kefir sodas + kombucha seriously hit the spot for an after-work treat or party drink.

Bonus: Fermented beverages like kombucha + kefir are jam-packed with healthy probiotics — so you’re actively contributing to a healthier gut biome.

3. Make mocktails
