Another thursday is here!

And there's more deliciousness for your indulgence... Yummy!

A quiet revolution is reshaping Edmonton's social scene as more residents embrace the "sober curious" lifestyle.

This growing movement is driven by a desire for wellness and mindful connection, fueling a renaissance in sophisticated non-alcoholic beverages.

Forget sugary mocktails of the past; local establishments are now crafting complex zero-proof drinks with artisanal ingredients, shrubs, and botanical infusions.

Leading the charge is SPILT Zero Proof Bar, a dedicated haven for alcohol-free mixology that proves you don't need spirits for a celebratory night out.

Other chic venues, like the Parisian-inspired Bar Trove, are also embracing the trend by integrating impressive sober drink menus that stand alongside their traditional offerings.

This cultural shift is making Edmonton’s nightlife more inclusive and vibrant than ever, celebrating creativity and ensuring everyone has a fantastic drink option.
