Curious Elixirs in Chicago, IL

In Good Spirits is a dedicated non-alcoholic bottle shop, bar, and community space in Chicago's West Town, opened on July 15, 2023 by engaged couple Adriana Gaspar and Hector Diaz. The two ran sober pop-ups around the city before securing a permanent storefront; both came to the alcohol-free life through personal experience — Gaspar stopped drinking after losing her father to COVID-19, and Diaz cut back following a kidney cancer diagnosis. The shop sells zero-proof beers, wines, spirits, aperitifs, functional drinks, and RTDs to take away or drink in, alongside a rotating menu of handmade mocktails. Beyond retail it functions as a third space, hosting sober supper clubs with local restaurants, book swaps, mocktail-making workshops, brand tastings, sound meditations, walking clubs, and Lotería nights. It is among Chicago's first standalone non-alcoholic bottle shops.
