The popularity of beverages without alcohol brews over the brim Especially in October.

Abby Ehman opened Hekate Cafe as a safe haven for sobriety.

"Giving up alcohol has a tremendous amount of benefits," said Michelle Sabourin.

She’s a life and recovery coach encouraged by the sober October trend.

I think people realize once they take a break, they say wow I really felt good during that month. Say they start with sober October and say I think I’m going to continue this trend or do it again. They feel better. They look better. They’re sleeping better," Sabourin told FOX 5.

 Places like Hekate make changing that lifestyle easier offering a massive mocktail menu even if just for a month.

 "It has become more of a movement over the last few years, and I’d like to say that it’s the best time in history to be sober because there are all of these products now," added Ehmann.
