Responsible Hosting
Mocktails—Beyond the Shirley Temple!
Mocktails are simply cocktails without the alcohol, and are intended to add to the enjoyment of guests who are not drinking alcohol. For tasty mocktail recipes, go to the Entertaining & More section (click here).
De-alcoholized products
A de-alcoholized product is one in which alcohol has been removed, resulting in a beverage alcohol content that is less than or equal to 0.5 per cent alcohol by volume. BC Liquor Stores carry a list of de-alcholized wine and beer. Click here to see available de-alcoholized
products.
Do you need a Special Occasion Licence?
If you're hosting an event where alcohol will be served or consumed, you'll probably need to purchase a Special Occasion Licence. You may also need a Serving it Right-trained person to serve drinks to your guests. For more information about Special Occasion Licences and Serving It Right, click here to go to the Stores & Services section of this site.
A safe ride home
Part of responsible hosting is ensuring that your guests plan ahead for a safe ride home. There are a number of ways you can help your guests get home safely from your event:
| · | Encourage some guests to volunteer as designated drivers; |
| · | Provide plenty of non-alcoholic beverages and some food throughout the event; |
| · | Arrange for "just-in-case" accommodations at a nearby hotel; |
| · | Book ahead with taxi companies so that they are available when your wedding ends. |
