Dry January is a brave undertaking. It’s already one of the most miserable times of the year, and to anyone doing something brave for the start of the new year (be it ditching alcohol or sticking to a difficult resolution) we tip our hat to you.

In honour of these brave souls, here at The Inner Circle we put on our thinking caps and scoured the internet for an alcohol free date idea. January is already hard enough, and if you’re giving up drinking it doesn’t mean you have to give up dating!

Bar 0.020 (Nieuwe Zijdsekolk 25, Amsterdam), is the pop-up sober singles need to try this month, offering the usual beer and cocktail selections you’d expect but without the temptation of alcohol. It’s a win win. 

That’s half the battle sorted, all you need to do now is find someone to take with you, which is where we come in. The Inner Circle gives you advanced profile filters, so if you want to find someone who’s teetotal, all you have to do is search! You can filter on any number of personality and lifestyle traits, or leave it up to chance and scroll to your heart's content (literally). The Inner Circle app provides the tools, and helps get you off your phone and dating in real life ASAP, and this pop-up is only running until the 31st of Jan so register for free here and make this dry-january the last one you do single.
