How to Be a Responsible Drinker and Still Have Fun

Summer is a time for outdoor happy hours and barbecues, but it's important to drink responsibly. Wellness Expert Taylor Wolfram suggests being mindful of your drinking habits by moderating your alcohol intake. She advises having a plan for what and how much you will drink, pausing before going for another drink, and not skipping meals while drinking to stay in control.

For those who choose not to drink, there are plenty of mocktail options to enjoy. Wolfram recommends muddling fruit and herbs with seltzer water, making a virgin Moscow Mule, or trying creative combinations like kombucha with fruit juice. By being conscious of your drinking habits and exploring alcohol-free options, you can have a fun and balanced summer without overindulging in alcohol.
