5 Non-Alcoholic Cocktails for a Mental Health Dry Friday

Alcohol is one of the most potent depressants. And when you’ve had a few glasses, it can lead to negative emotions like anger, sadness, and anxiety. For some of us, it can even lead to a cycle of dependence.

If you’re looking to treat your brain to an alcohol-free Dry Friday, here are five brain-friendly mocktails to give a shake. Along with tasting great, they’ll help you stay hydrated. Getting enough water and fluids has been linked to higher energy, improved mood, clearer brain function, and even headache relief.
