Who doesn’t love a good Halloween party?? The spooky vibes, the fabulous costumes, and the creative drinks… Speaking of drinks, with Gen Z being statistically more Sober Curious, why not turn a new leaf this spooky season. Start serving non-alcoholic beverages at your upcoming Halloween party. Your guests will leave the party thanking you in the morning when they wake up not feeling hungover (especially with Halloween being on a Monday).
