Drinks with dinner
Saw this article this morning, and thought some of you might enjoy. I think seltzer with lime is best, but some of these drinks sound okay...

Have a great weekend, everyone.

I think its GREAT that more and more restaurants are coming up with 'non alcoholic' drinks (at high prices). lol
But don't kid yourself ...................... it is all about 'money.' Many restaurants show a profit because of 'their bar' and what it brings in, so .................... if they can get you to still 'order a drink' even though non alcoholic and charge the 'hefty' price then their books stay in the black.
I have tried some of the 'exotic' non alcoholic drinks at my favorite restaurants, but to be honest, a large glass of Iced Tea does me just fine, and then a cup of coffee with dessert.
That's just me, rofl and maybe my age is showing as I prefer the 'familiar' rather than the new and different, lmao
Love and hugs,
