Designing Intention Without Alcohol

Manifesto Notes | January 7, 2026

This Manifesto Hour explored a simple but powerful idea: intention matters just as much without alcohol.

With Point 5, we examined how N/A Craft Cocktails can still deliver structure, balance, and complexity when treated with the same care as traditional builds. The focus wasn’t substitution, but design. Texture, acidity, aromatics, and finish became the center of the conversation.

Guests experienced thoughtfully constructed cocktails that challenged assumptions about what alcohol-free drinks can be. The takeaway was clear: when technique leads, the glass follows.

Manifesto Hour continues to explore what thoughtful drinking can look like. Join us Wednesdays from 6–7PM for the next experience.
