Atlanta bartenders have never needed permission to do something different, and the city’s growing roster of non-alcoholic cocktails is proof. Sober-curious, sober-serious, or just pacing yourself; whatever brought you to the zero-proof side, you’re no longer stuck with a sad sparkling water.
From Ponce to the Westside, the city’s best bars are treating N/A cocktails with the same reverence as their spirits. Here’s where to sip without sacrificing the experience.
Jagger Suite
Perched above the Moxy Downtown with Mercedes-Benz Stadium glittering in the distance, Jagger Suite is loud, glamorous, and built for a big night. The “Free-Spirited” menu fits right in: the Rooftop Retreat pairs Ritual tequila alternative with pineapple, basil, and coconut water; the Flashback goes whiskey alternative, ginger, and lemon; the Off the Record rounds things out with zero-proof gin, vanilla, pomegranate, and citrus. All three provide the same Studio 54 energy as the cocktails; best enjoyed beneath that 12-foot disco unicorn.
