No where did I say that this is suitable for everyone in recovery so stop acting like I did. These are nice gestures you can show your sober friends and family and you don’t have to give them cocktail/mocktail names! Know your triggers & act accordingly! I love u all! Stay safe!!
If your pals don’t want this, ask them what they would like instead of harassing me!
I like occasional mocktails, I like water and coffee! I am happy and comfortable with my sobriety!
