Not everyone at the party is holding a drink—and that’s okay! When someone says, “I’m not drinking,” the best response isn’t “Why not?” but instead:

✨ “Good for you!”
✨ “What can I get you instead?”

Whether it’s recovery, a health choice, or they simply don’t feel like drinking, their decision is valid—and worth celebrating. Let’s normalize respecting people’s choices and creating a welcoming environment for everyone, no matter what’s in their glass!
