Mocktails are a good replacement for your usual tipple during Dry January.
January is certainly a month of new beginnings and fresh starts.
This is particularly relevant for those taking part in Dry January 2024.
But for every person abstaining (and rubbing it in other users’ faces), is another indulging (and rubbing it in other users’ faces), and with so many conflicting views, opinions and experiences, the first month of the year can become a long one, in more ways than one.
TikTok has been filled with hilarious takes on Dry January, with users commenting on the hard task ahead, while others simply give up on the task at hand. One such video comes from @krianbearney, who comedically goes through the first few months of the year detailing the downward spiral of attempting Dry January.

With the ability to find any excuse to have a drink throughout the months, Bearney cleverly identifies with a community who can relate to these struggles.
Another video gaining traction on TikTok comes from @kelsey.carnes. she pokes fun at those who are working through dry January by emphasising their need to let everyone know how they are doing and that they are in fact partaking in Dry January.
