What to Drink When You're Not Drinking

But sometimes, we need a break from imbibing--even light social sipping can get tiresome. (Read why our editor Kristen decided to take a 90-day hiatus!).

Still, even when I wasn't in this delicate position, I tried to limit my intake to one or two drinks on the weekend.
Now that I'm totally abstaining, I'll say this: I don't miss the subtle headache or even slight buzz.
