Is it weird that I'm in my 40's and yet I still feel peer pressure to drink when I go to parties and cookouts?
Do you feel that too?
It's crazy how our society seems to be based so much around food and drink, and if you don't drink it's like you're doing something wrong.
Nonetheless, sometimes I partake – when I'm not doing the AIP Diet or Whole30 – and I usually end up regretting it.
And I'm not even getting drunk like I used to in my youth!
Just one or two beverages seem to send me into a week-long hangover of increased gas and bloating, brain fog, and digestive issues.
My functional medicine practitioner says it's leftover from my SIBO days – there are still some bacteria in there apparently that LOVE the ole' alcohol sugars (also why I cannot eat sugar alcohols like erythritol, xylitol, etc without the same effects).
I've found though that drinking mocktails satisfies both me and my desire for a fun beverage – and the ex-frat boys who have a need to get everyone wasted.
I often don't mention that there's no alcohol in my drink, and most people look longingly at my beverage thinking it's some amazing fruity liquor drink.
Seriously, the jealous stares are quite hilarious – and I'm also clear-headed enough to see them!
The Mocktails
Here are 5 of the mocktail drinks I turn to often – they're Paleo & AIP and some of them are Whole30 as well (I indicate what diets they're appropriate for in each recipe):
