As the holiday season approaches, parties and celebrations are in full swing, and it’s easy to get caught up in the festive drinking. But here’s a trend this year that is helping people keep things in check: “Zebra Striping.”  According to The Guardian, this simple approach involves alternating between alcoholic drinks and non-alcoholic ones, just like the black and white stripes of a zebra.

The idea is straightforward: enjoy your favorite cocktail or beer, but then follow it up with a drink that’s booze-free, such as water or a soda. This helps you pace yourself and avoid overindulging, especially during busy party seasons when the drinks seem endless.

I use the same strategy every St. Patrick’s Day 🙂
