Mocktail Club in New Orleans, LA

Dream House Lounge is New Orleans' first brick-and-mortar zero-proof bar, opened in July 2022 in the Central Business District by Dr. David J. Wallace (Oba Yoko). It's a fully alcohol-free wellness lounge built around what Wallace calls "conscious cocktails," rooted in Black ancestral healing and mental-wellness programming. The drink menu is split into named sections — "Conscious Cocktails," "Shroomtails," and "Sophisticated Sips" — with house mocktails such as the Dreamarita, Lavender Dreams, and Dream Water, alongside canned Mocktail Club sips and zero-proof spirits like Cut Above. Beyond drinks, the space offers an oxygen bar, coffee and tea, small bites, classes, and an apothecary. It has since added THC- and adaptogenic-mushroom-infused beverages, so it is alcohol-free but not substance-free.
