How do I plan a let's stay sober party?
Answers:
first off invite sober people to your party. get plenty of soft drinks and coffee and tea, plenty of snacks and goodies, make sure there is some good music and have some good clean fun. make sure that anyone walking through the door knows that it is a sober party and anyone disrespecting that will have to leave.
Try having sodas and things like that
Make a bunch of cool looking drinks... Make Spritzers, buy some non alcohloic champagne. I think on this one its all about the presentation of the drinks rather than the booze
mock-tails....basically, theyre cocktails without the alcohol. you can still have yummy drinks, just dont serve alcohol. you can even get non-alcoholic beer.
Serve really good appetizers. Pick a good variety. Make virgin drinks. Virgin Mary, Margarita, Pina Colada. The taste isn't necessarily the alcolhol. Just make the drinks with no booze.
get a list of non alcoholic cocktails and ingredients needed and get your friends to bring 1 ingredient each and all take turns to make a cocktail of some sort? Although we did do this with alcohol so i'm not sure how many drinks you will actually be able drink?
I agree with the mocktails and sodas. But the most important thing is to keep people busy. Games of all kinds. If people are trying to stay sober and the party's boring, they'll think "I wish I had a drink!" Pictionary is always fun and keeps the mind off alcohol. Trivial Pursuit is another good one. When you have enough fun and laugh and you're drinking drinks that taste like real alcohol beverages, it almost feels like being tipsy.
And that's so great you're throwing a sober party. I don't know your group of friends, but they'll appreciate the fun and something, anything to take their minds off the real drink.
with my friends that would be impossible
This really depends. If you are an average, of age person just trying to save money, it is impossible - you are just going to look cheap.
If you have been to rehab it will be no issue for anyone who cares about you. Just make sure you have lots of coffee.
If you are underage this should not be a question.
Invite people who don't drink or who will be okay with not drinking.
