Whatever the reason, if you’re opting out of alcohol — for the night, the month, or forever —but not on socializing, Chicago has a spot for you. Bars across the U.S. have taken note of how many of us want adult, nonalcoholic options that receive as much time and attention as their higher-proof counterparts, and many of these nonalcoholic cocktails are being shaken, stirred, and built behind the bars of Windy City establishments. The common denominator (truly, the base!) of these expertly crafted cocktails is Seedlip, the range of flavor-forward distilled nonalcoholic spirits. Each variant — herbaceous Garden 108, aromatic Spice 94 and citrus-forward Grove 42 — uses botanical ingredients that are macerated, distilled, filtered, and blended meticulously to create a liquid like nothing you’ve tasted before — sans alcohol.
So, go ahead with your weekday socializing and weekend nights out — order a nonalcoholic cocktail and you won’t miss out on a thing.
