If you resolved to participate in Dry January this year, Seattle knows how to mix things up.

The month-long challenge to abstain from alcohol may be more appealing than ever thanks to all the creative non-alcoholic options around town. And we’re not just talking about Seattle’s famed coffee.

Those who want to socialize at bars, but stick to the booze-free plan can seek out these spots for tempting beverages.

Mocktail specialists

  • Dark Room, 8505 Greenwood Ave. N. | Try the Miss Jackson If You’re N/A’sty, a refreshing libation made with blackberry and ginger honey.
  • Stampede, 119 N. 36th St. | Options include the Martian Mojo, which is basically a creamsicle in liquid form.
  • Inside Passage, 1108 Pike St. | Looking to fuel up with a tropical drink? Sip on the coconut and currant-flavored IP Unleaded — it’s served in a vintage “Shell” container.

Booze-free wine

  • Cheeky and Dry, 6120 Phinney Ave. N. | The unique new shop offers just about any canned mocktail you can imagine, but the N/A wine selection is especially robust.
  • Jøyous, various locations | Seattle entrepreneur Jess Selander launched this brand in 2021 and it now appears in 300+ stores around the US. It also scored gold medals at the New York Wine & Spirits Competition.

N/A beer + hop water

  • Figurehead, 4001 21st Ave. W. | The brewery near Fisherman’s Terminal likes to experiment with no- and low-alcohol brown ales and stouts.
  • The Beer Junction, 4511 California Ave. SW | Find selections from the Athletic, Bravus, Self Care, and Best Day at the popular West Seattle bottleshop.
  • Aslan Brewing, 401 N. 36th St. | More seltzer-like than beer, Aslan makes hop water with a blend of piney Chinook and fruity Cascade hops.
