Another year, another Dry January®. Whilst for some it’s a yearly ritual, others will be dipping their toe in for the first time – and if this is your first rodeo, there’s a chance you might be wondering how best to stick to your goals without missing out on all the fun. But what if we told you you could still socialise with your mates and wake up feeling refreshed without being limited to fizzy water all evening?
The Official Wine and Spirit of Dry January®, and the most awarded range of non-alcoholic spirits on the market, Lyre’s is the key to finessing a month free of drinking, whilst still enjoying all of your favourite cocktails. You’ll find it on hundreds of cocktail menus across London – and to help us really get into the Dry January® spirit, they’re even giving away thousands of free cocktails in selected venues across the UK! Here’s just a few of our favourite places to enjoy some Lyre’s non-alcoholic cocktails this January…
1. The Ivy Asia
From the delectable food to the magnificent interiors, everything The Ivy Asia brings to the table is nothing short of fabulous – and their non-alcoholic drinks are no exception. This year they’ve teamed up with Lyre’s to create five delicious non-alcoholic cocktails. Until January 31 you can sip on a Berries and Rhubarb Pop, a Blood Orange Spritz, a Sugar & Spice, an Amaretti No Sour or a Pink Blossom. Those are five good reasons to make it a Lyre’s this January!
2. Le Petit Beefbar
This ultra-chic cocktail bar in the heart of Chelsea boasts stunning interiors and a Lyre’s cocktail menu to match. Available until January 31, their limited edition Dry January® serves include a Milky Almond Berry made with Lyre’s Amaretti or a citrusy Mind Focus made with Lyre’s Dry London. You can also get a caffeine boost with a Bonbon, made with Lyre’s Originale, or curb your sweet cravings with a Teatime, made with Lyre’s Italian Spritz.
3. LPM Restaurant
A little slice of the Côte d’Azur in the middle of London – sounds like the perfect antidote to a cold rainy January right?
