Bar Crawls: Can't Drink

[Figamento]

I can't drink due to some health issues, but still want to do a monorail bar crawl. Suggestions?

Ask the bartender if they make any non-alcoholic drinks. There are some speciality drinks like a strawberry daiquiri that taste just as good without the alcohol. Another option is to order a soft drink. Personally I don't drink and have no problems ordering a club soda.

Try virgin strawberry daiquiri, margarita, or pina colada.

Should have also mentioned no sugar and no artificial sweeteners. Kinda awkward to take up bar space and order an OJ and three rounds of tap water.

Are you going with people who can? I think it's fine either way. It world be good to plan to tip the bartenders as if you had been drinking more expensive drinks, and in that case, I'm sure they will be fine with it. Also, if you can order appetizers at any of them, that might help too.

Try unsweetened hot/cold tea.

Club soda with a lemon or lime.

I think what I was trying to get at was the appropriateness of taking up bar space and sitting without buying anything of substance. Will likely just skip it. Kinda loses its allure when not intoxicated.

As long as you're tipping as if you are buying something of substance, it's not going to be a problem.
