SINGAPORE — Around the world people are starting to relook at what they’re drinking when they head out to meet friends and party. Yes, people are actually looking for No Alcohol Low Alcohol or NOLO drinks at bars and restaurants.
For a variety of reasons from health to religion to even boredom with being drunk, people are choosing to drink less alcohol on their nights out. In Singapore there’s a group of people who have even begun their own list of the best non-alcoholic cocktails and drinks around town.
On top of that, Becca D’Bus is also a diabetic which is controlled by diet and so she stays away from sugary drinks.“I order sparkling water!” Marie Choo is another person who works in marketing and the nightlife industries who stays away from drinking alcohol. “The reason why I don’t drink is because I usually have to wake up early the next day to run and my body can’t process alcohol well.
“I gave up eating red meat and drinking carbonated drinks and alcohol after I got out of the hospital. My health improved after that and I never looked back ever since. Chef Shen Tan, who runs a number of restaurants, has been over sober for over 50 days. “I initially was going to go sober until the Midnight Sun marathon in June. But as the days passed, I realised that I felt better not drinking,” explains Ms Tan.
Ms Tan said that after almost 35 years of drinking she decided that it had “no place in her life anymore”, and that she personally feels much better for “saying goodbye to booze”.Hanging out with your friends enjoying gigs and performances but being a non-drinker, is another reason why people are choosing to go NOLO.
