Gallery: 10 Drink Ideas For When You Need To Be Sober Sally

As much as we all love to have a good time with a few drinks every once in a while (or every weekend), sometimes celebrations call for a little bit of restraint. Which is a super fancy way of saying you have to nix the liquor. 

Cute children's parties, classy events, and even nerve-wracking first dates are all situations where staying a Sober Sally is probably in the best interests of you and your pride. 

Still, this doesn't mean you have to sit in a corner, sipping on lukewarm ginger ale and humming to yourself. Virgin cocktails, mocktails, whatever you want to call them, non-alcoholic cocktails have come a long way since the chaperoned high school parties you used to attend. Modern mocktails are fresh, fun, and absolutely delicious. 

While they'll never truly take the place of your favorite "real" drink, they're sure to earn a special place in your sober heart.
