Dry January has become a popular way for many people to hit pause after a holiday season full of celebrations, cocktails, and family dinners. Originally launched as a month‑long alcohol break to support better sleep, energy, and overall well‑being, the movement has evolved, especially in communities where cannabis is legal.


For some, “dry” still means avoiding alcohol completely. Others are redefining the month to focus on healthier, more intentional choices — including cannabis, CBD, and alcohol‑free beverages — rather than strict abstinence. Surveys show that roughly one in five people doing Dry January are turning to cannabis or CBD products as a substitute for alcohol during the month.





Why This Shift Is Happening


Many people find that cannabis can:


  • Provide relaxation without dehydration or hangovers

  • Offer a controlled, mindful experience — especially with low‑dose products and labeled dosages

  • Support social ritual without alcohol — like sipping a THC beverage instead of a drink


Plus, cannabis beverages and microdosed edibles have become more popular and widely available, offering alternatives that fit the relaxed, intentional vibe many people want during a wellness reset.


That said, Dry January is still a personal choice. Some people choose to stay fully sober from all substances, others use CBD for calm without THC, and some find low‑dose cannabis helps them stay social without returning to heavy drinking habits.

Mindful Consumption Is Key


If you’re approaching Dry January with cannabis as part of your strategy, remember:


  • Start with low doses and know your limits.

  • Choose formats that align with your goals — like microdosed drinks or balanced THC:CBD products (often lighter and easier to pace).

  • Reflect on how cannabis affects you physically and mentally — just as you might during a Dry January challenge.


Dry January — whether “dry,” “low,” or “high” in personal choice — is an opportunity to reevaluate your relationship with alcohol and other substances, build new routines, and choose experiences that support your health, connection, and joy.

*Cannabis should always be consumed responsibly. Be sure to communicate dosages clearly to your guests and encourage them to start with a low dose. Keep infused drinks clearly labeled and offer plenty of non-infused options. Physical & psychological effects of cannabis use vary from person person. These effects can be impacted by underlying health conditions, physical health, interactions with other substances, and tolerance. If you are new to cannabis use proceed with caution.
