Dry January: The best drinks in London for when you’re not drinking

Dry January is here. The increasingly popular annual ritual that collectively sobers the nation after the traditions (read: excesses) of the festive period means that somewhere between four and 10 million of us Brits will be attempting to go cold turkey for the following 31 days. A sobriety challenge offering both a mental and physical reset might sound like a health kick, but going without the sauce shouldn’t mean missing out on the fun.
