An October to Remember

Posted on 7 October 2025 | By Mari Geier

This month, we’re redefining “Sober October.” Instead of giving something up, we’re remembering more — more energy, more laughter, more mornings we love waking up to. Explore the new way to unwind with booze-free beverages.

An October to Remember

Rediscover the Joy in Feeling Good

Most people think “Sober October” means giving something up. But what if this October wasn’t about saying no to alcohol — it was about saying yes to remembering more?
More laughter. More clarity. More energy. More mornings you actually enjoy waking up to.

At Nuts ’n Berries, we call that An October to Remember — because when you drink differently, you get to remember all the wonderful details.

This month, we’re celebrating the growing world of booze-free bevies — everything from CBD and THC seltzers to functional drinks crafted with adaptogens, botanicals, and nootropics. Whether you’re sober-curious, cutting back, or just exploring healthier options, here’s your beginner’s guide to the three categories lighting up the fridge this season.

CBD Beverages: Calm Without the Buzz

CBD (short for cannabidiol) comes from the hemp plant, but it won’t get you high. Instead, it helps the body find balance by interacting with your endocannabinoid system — the same system that supports mood, sleep, and stress response.
Most people describe the feeling as a gentle calm or a deep breath for your nervous system.
Perfect for unwinding after work, resetting between meetings, or easing social anxiety without a hangover.

Pro tip: Pair a CBD drink with a magnesium-rich snack (hello, dark chocolate or almonds!) to double down on your chill.

THC Beverages: The Modern Way to Unwind

THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is the active compound in cannabis that creates euphoria — but in drink form, the experience is far lighter and more predictable than smoking or edibles.
These drinks offer a controlled, social, and safe alternative to alcohol, without the dehydration or regret.
You’ll find options that range from micro-dosed for a mild mood boost to sessionable sips that help you truly relax.

At Nuts ’n Berries, we curate hemp-derived THC beverages that meet Georgia’s regulations and our strict quality standards — always non-synthetic, always clearly labeled, and always delicious.

Functional Beverages: Nature’s Mocktails with Benefits

Not every drink needs hemp to help you feel good.
Functional beverages use adaptogens, botanicals, and nootropics — natural ingredients that support focus, mood, and energy. Think of them as herbal allies in a can.
You’ll find blends featuring reishi for relaxation, lion’s mane for clarity, tulsi for balance, and ashwagandha for stress support.

These are the perfect companions for your daily rituals: a mid-afternoon pick-me-up, pre-yoga reset, or happy hour alternative that actually supports your health instead of depleting it.
