Maybe you don't like the taste of alcohol, have stopped drinking for medical reasons, or are on a sober journey. No matter the reason I know how tricky it can be to find good zero-proof options that aren't just pop or sparkling water (like honestly, those shouldn't even count). You deserve yummy drinks too so you are in the right place. While zero-proof is becoming more popular (YAY) it isn't as common as it should be. So, I have put together a list of places that I have been to (and enjoyed) that clearly list their options out, or I know have options because I have asked (but come on places just list them out already). This map is ever growing and I will add to it as I try more places that I would recommend. Ps. the food is pretty good at most these places too.
