going to bars in sobriety

I wanted to get some people experience with going to bars in sobriety. I went to a bar this past weekend with some close friends and my sister that all knew that I am sober in aa. The plan I had was to just go to dinner with them then leave when they left for the bar. I was not done talking with them by the time dinner was over so I decided to go to the bar. I only stayed for about an hour and a half when they started to get drunk I left. Didn't bother me at all I actually had a great time.
So I came back and the next day I was honest with my sponsor. She now calls me and says that this is non-negotiable with her basically saying but not coming out in saying it that she won't sponsor me if I don't change my opinion on this. I don't plan on going back to a bar anytime soon or going regularly this was just a special occasion on me and my twin sisters birthday.
I just don't know what to do because I am not going to change my mind to me this was not a big deal I went with my sister and everyone knew I was in aa.
