Whether you're looking to break a generational cycle, got a bun cooking in the oven and craving a cocktail, or simply prefer to live a cleaner lifestyle, a new non-alcoholic bottle shop in Tampa Bay may be your newest go-to.

Herban Flow's new spot opened its doors in early January at 6848 22nd Avenue North in St. Petersburg; their shelves feature a variety of beverages, from non-alcoholic beers, wines, and spirits to herbal-infused beverages such as kava and kratom, and even mushrooms and cannabis-infused options. You'll also find a solid selection of healthy mixers, mocktails, coffees, teas, non-alcoholic Syrah, and aperitifs.

Whether you're looking for THC Seltzers from Cycling Frog, a canned mimosa, non-alcoholic beers from Athletic Brewing for DnD night with the guild, or hoping to drown in delicious Rosé and Chardonnay, there's a little something for every type of sober-sipper. Their zero-proof selection is pretty extensive as well, with offerings such as gin, mezcal, rum, whiskey, and more. The space also has the room to host events.

Those not sure where to start on their sober sipping journey or simply wanting to try something before committing to a purchase can find their flow with a little help from owners Caitlyn and Mike Smith at their tasting bar.

According to reports from I Love the Burg, the couple opened the bottle shop with the intent of offering more alcohol alternatives to their community, as well as providing opportunities to learn about different health and wellness products for maintaining a healthy and alcohol-free life.

“Herban Flow is focused on establishing itself as a reliable and informative source for non-alcoholic beverages and wellness products alike while helping to change the flow of social drinking,” the owners told the publication.

Those hoping to peruse the booze-less bottle shop's selection can do so Every Tuesday through Thursday from 11 am to 7 pm, between 11 am and 8 pm on Fridays and Saturdays, or Sundays between 11 and 6 pm. They're closed every Monday.
