The sales of non-alcoholic beverages are spiking in Newfoundland and Labrador and across the country as trends like "dry January" pick up steam and some people consider consuming less alcohol throughout the year or cutting it out entirely.On Monday, the Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction released a report that says no amount of alcohol consumption is safe and consuming more than two drinks a week can be risky.
Non-alcoholic offerings can be met with a bit of skepticism, said Ladéroute, but customers are starting to expect them on menus. Ladéroute says the non-alcoholic spirits they sell are distilled until the alcohol is removed but the flavour — like juniper, which gives gin its taste — is left behind. Greg Gill says they're seeing sustained sales growth throughout the year, not just during dry January.
