Mocktail & Mixer Brands

DC's first fully alcohol-free bar, pairing zero-proof cocktails and craft NA drinks with a Filipino bistro and events space on H Street NE.

Founded in August 2023 by Joe Patterson and Grace Vroom, a husband-and-wife duo who have been alcohol-free since 2016, Dear Dry Drinkery was Austin's first dedicated non-alcoholic bottle shop. Originally launched as a mobile pop-up parked across from Bufalina on East Cesar Chavez, it grew into a brick-and-mortar location at 2226 E Cesar Chavez Street in mid-2023 and celebrated its one-year anniversary in August 2024. As of September 2025, Dear Dry Drinkery closed its physical storefront and now operates as a mobile and events-focused business, running mocktail mixology classes, in-store tastings at partner venues, and online sales. The curation reflects the founders' personal taste from their seven-plus years of sober living, with a strong emphasis on Austin-based non-alcoholic brands.

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.

Good News Bar is San Diego's first dedicated 100% alcohol-free bar, opened in July 2025 in Hillcrest by married former bartenders Crystal and Kaylee Clark, who left drinking behind in recovery and built a daytime-to-evening venue with an integrated non-alcoholic bottle shop. By day it serves coffee, tea, functional cocktails, and pastries; by night it pours "functional" cocktails built around adaptogens, nootropics, nervines, kava, and hemp-derived CBD (mostly 0.0% ABV) alongside "free-spirited" cocktails (under 0.5% ABV) that reimagine classics with non-alcoholic spirits, plus dealcoholized wines and NA beers. Signature zero-proof drinks include The Merry Go Round, The Woods, Deborah Downer, and Goosebumpz. It's an inclusive, sober and sober-curious space with trivia, live music, and DJ nights.

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.

A pioneering alcohol-free bar that runs as a roving pop-up across NYC venues, with musician bartenders and a fully zero-proof craft cocktail program. One of the original templates for the modern NA bar scene, it has no fixed physical location.

Marigold is Minnesota's first dedicated non-alcoholic bottle shop, opened by hair stylist and Honeycomb Salon owner Erin Flavin in late 2022 on Nicollet Avenue in the Kingfield neighborhood of South Minneapolis. Born out of Flavin's own 2020 sobriety journey and conversations with salon clients, the shop is entirely alcohol-free, stocking NA spirits and aperitifs, de-alcoholized wine and sparkling teas, NA beer, bitters, mixers, ready-to-drink cocktails, adaptogenic and functional beverages, plus a THC/CBD section. The curated shelves carry brands including Three Spirit, Ghia, Kin Euphorics, Aplos, and Untitled Art N/A, alongside local THC and CBD producers. As of 2026 it is the Twin Cities' last standing NA bottle shop after the closure of its St. Paul outpost and a Northeast Minneapolis competitor — a status that makes it both a community anchor and, by the owner's own account, a week-by-week labor of love.
