For all you sober and sober-curious folks, The Longleaf Hotel & Lounge is hosting a Dry January Series that’s as refreshing as it is buzz-free! On select Thursdays (January 16th and 30th) from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, join in for a taste of unique mocktails, N/A beers, and THC-infused drinks—plus plenty of free samples to go around. It’s the perfect way to cheers to 2025 while keeping things light.
Not sponsored…although if they wanted to send us a mocktail, we probably wouldn’t turn it down.
