What is “Dry January’’?
1 cup cranberries

fresh mint (or any herb)
ice
With many of us coming off a season of imbibing, it may seem obvious that taking a rest from alcohol will support our health and well-being goals. Better quality sleep, increased energy and focus, and a better mood all seem to be good reasons to abstain, yet going booze-free for a period of time also offers up a fresh perspective on our relationship with alcohol.
Slice, pour, and gently stir. Chill for at least an hour before serving, and garnish with additional herbs, fruits, or spices like cinnamon sticks and anise stars.
2 pears, sliced
