The holidays have wrapped, and as the tinsel settles, folks all over the country are diving into the 31-day “Dry January” challenge — a month long toast to feeling good without the booze.

Going Dry This January?
Cheers to you! It’s the perfect reset button — and the perks are pretty sweet: more energy, better sleep, glowing skin, and maybe even a little less jiggle in your jeans.
And the best part? You don’t have to give up happy hour to go alcohol-free. Your local Market of Choice is fully stocked with all kinds of zero-proof goodness — from functional tonics and hop-free brews to crisp NA wines, craft zero-proof cocktails, and alcohol-free spirits.
So raise a glass (of something deliciously dry) and kick off 2026 feeling fresh, focused, and fully hydrated.
Sip Smarter With Functional Beverages
Functional drinks have been bubbling up in a big way, and we’re here for it. From small-batch makers to craft innovators, this new wave of better-for-you beverages proves that wellness can be seriously delicious.
Think prebiotic sodas that love your gut, vitamin-packed waters that keep you glowing, mushroom elixirs that boost your focus, and CBD-infused sips that help you chill — all without the buzz.
Perfect for social hangs, cozy nights in, or any time you want a drink in hand without the hangover, these smart sips deliver refreshment and good vibes.
Here are a few of our favorite functional beverages chilling in our cooler — ready to help you toast to your health, one tasty sip at a time.
Tropink is a low-calorie, low-sugar functional beverage made with real tropical fruit juice, vitamin D, and 30mg of broad-spectrum hemp (the functional part of cannabis). Made locally in Portland, Tropink is a good-for-you drink that supports your sobriety goals.
Ablis are CBD-infused drinks designed for those with an active lifestyle. When craving sunshine on a rainy day, reach for a non-alcoholic Strawberry Mojito. Or, for a boost of natural energy, a Cranberry Blood Orange shot will reinvigorate your senses. Ablis beverages are healthy, low in sugar content, and made locally in Bend, Oregon.
Recess Mood is a functional beverage company that creates lightly sparkling drinks that harness the powerful calming effects of hemp, adaptogens, and magnesium. Recess Mood and Craft Mocktails help you feel calm, cool, and collected in an otherwise stressful world.
Mate Party from Big Fun Beverages is on a mission to keep the party going, the mood groovy, and energy high without alcohol or other harmful ingredients. Mate Party channels the power of Yerba Mate tea for natural mood enhancement and clear-headed energy, perfect for social engagements.
