We're Not Drinking Tonight

So, what exactly do you drink when you're not drinking? That's the question behind We're Not Drinking Tonight, the podcast that follows two friends and former party girls, Ciara and Shantel, as they taste their way through the latest and greatest additions to the budding no-, low-, and alternative alcohol spirits category. What inspired these two busy professionals, affectionately known as 'the Ladies', to seek out mocktails over cocktails, even though they both still drink alcohol (with no plans to stop)? Life! With corporate careers from 9-5 and active personal lives from 5-9, these days, the ladies are more likely to be having a glass of wine at a work dinner or bellinis at brunch than to be doing shots at the club. So for the nights when work or life obligations are calling the next day, why not find they best ways to relax that aren't 20% ABV? For days like that, the Ladies are all about staying social, spirited, and hangover free. For the other days, the tequila and champagne will still be there. Listen along as the ladies rate and review the latest and greatest no-alcohol, low-alcohol, cannabis, CBD, nootropic, and functional beverage alternatives out there, and discuss the changing spirits landscape with some debates and plenty of laughs along the way.
