There is no comparison between one-day-at-a-time tentative sobriety and the never-ending now. Worlds apart. The corresponding analogue to "I never now drink" using a single day as a measure would be:
"I will never drink on any given day." (regardless of what day it is)
Compare to:
"I will not drink just for today."
or
"I will not drink just one-day-at-a-time."
