Hilary Sheinbaum’s new workbook, “Going Dry,” is released on Sept. 3 and offers advice on tackling dry months, creating non-alcoholic drinks, and exploring new lifestyle choices.
What better way to kick off Dry January than with mocktails and manicures? Mingle Mocktails and GLOSSLAB graciously extended an invite to a girls’ night out and treated us to both—lucky us!
The founder of Mingle Mocktails, Laura Taylor, was mingling among the guests for a Dry January event, which allowed guests to try each of the lineup of the beverage’s flavors. With a drink in hand, guests were also treated to a complimentary manicure.
(I picked the perfect shade to match my beveragino—Mingle Mocktail’s “Cranberry Cosmo!”)
My nails dried insanely fast—which made it infinitely harder to keep myself from indulging in the spread laid out for the evening. In addition to a charcuterie board and finger desserts from Eataly, the food also included the cutest “cakes-in-a-jar” from Andie’s Eats, a local bakery in NYC.
(I snuck a jar of the S’mores cake in my swag bag—no regrets everyone!)
I was honestly impressed with Mingle Mocktails—especially after trying so many soda alternatives over the past year. “Blood Orange Elderflower Mimosa” was my favorite, with “Cranberry Cosmo” coming in at a hard second.
You can find Mingle Mocktails at Whole Foods and several grocers across NYC via their store locator HERE. You can also find GLOSSLAB locations citywide for the fastest manicure in New York!
