Responsible Hosting
![](/web/20080207073055im_/http://www.bcliquorstores.com/images/common/responsiblehosting_header.gif) Mocktails—Beyond the Shirley Temple!
![](/web/20080207073055im_/http://www.bcliquorstores.com/images/pixel.gif) 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
![](/web/20080207073055im_/http://www.bcliquorstores.com/images/pixel.gif) 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?
![](/web/20080207073055im_/http://www.bcliquorstores.com/images/pixel.gif) 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
![](/web/20080207073055im_/http://www.bcliquorstores.com/images/pixel.gif) 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. |
