THE FACTS

Have you ever stopped to consider how prevalent alcohol is in our daily lives? It has been integrated seamlessly into our social fabric, but at what cost?

Whether you are sober curious or alcohol-free for a day, a week, or a lifetime, how about an alternative?

NUMBER OF ACTIVE LIQUOR LICENSES IN MASSACHUSETTS:

  • 33,588 for a population of 6,984,723 in the year 2021

  • That equates to 1 liquor license for every 207 people!

However, America’s attitude towards alcohol is changing:

  • The non-alcoholic (NA) beverage market is exploding.

  • More Americans than ever are participating in Dry January.

  • Emphasizing health and wellness, individuals are becoming more aware of the negative health effects of alcohol consumption on physical and mental well-being.

  • The sober curious numbers are growing with 41% of Americans trying to drink less alcohol.

  • Millennials are leading a cultural shift and they are drinking less alcohol compared to previous generations. 

Changing Social Norms

Attitudes toward drinking are evolving, with less emphasis on alcohol consumption as a social norm. The shift in society’s relationship to alcohol means a large and growing population is seeking alcohol-free (AF) spaces in which to engage and socialize.

With balance comes new possibilities. Temperance Mobile Café aims to provide a transformative experience for those in recovery, sober individuals, and mindful drinkers.
