Looking for advice for parties

I have a birthday party that I have to go to tonight. Anyway I don’t wanna drink alcohol as I’m only one month out, I can’t drink juice due to sugar, and I’m worried anything with bubbles will hurt.
I don’t want a bunch of questions and why I’m only drinking Water.
What can I drink that looks like a normal drink that I will be able to tolerate. I was hoping for a non-alcohol, non frizzy, non sugar drink. Does a drink like this even exist?
Please help guys I have no one else to turn too? [emoji20]
I’m so anxious about tonight.

  • Is it at a bar? If so you could ask barman to pop some fresh lime and maybe mint in a glass water. People that push you to drink may assume you're having a vodka lime soda or mojito then.

    What about water with some Crystal Light or Mio flavoring? It'll be a color that could indicate just about anything in terms of a mixed drink . . .?

Just tell everyone you are the designated driver! No worries because you are being safety minded. I used to carry around a glass of white wine. Didn't drink it, just carried it around.

The above posts have it right. nobody needs to know that the drink in your hand is water. Mio bottles are real tiny you could carry that around easy or just keep lemon or lime piece in glass. If your with date/spouse go with DD bit otherwise you might have drive some drunk home (lol)

I always drink water with a slice of lemon in it when I'm out.. I'm almost always DD.
