11 Products For Dry January and Beyond, According to the Founder of Sober(ish)

Sober(ish) Drops ($25, originally $30)

Sober(ish) drops can be added to any drink for quick, wine-like buzz. In just five to 10 minutes, the effects of a perfectly balanced 2mg THC and 4mg CBD kicks in. While this item has zero taste, there are plenty of shot options ($16, originally $20) with delicious flavors to help you concoct your desired recipe. Sober(ish) drops come in two different sizes — with either 15 servings or 30 servings — and you can read countless customer reviews that vouch for the quality.

"Honestly, seeing the impact Sober(ish) has had on people blows me away," Gamez says of the product she created. "Hearing stories of better sleep, weight loss, and even those finally feeling good about their relationship with alcohol – that's the real win. Plus, showing my kids that you can make a difference, even from a small town like ours, feels pretty darn fun."

ChatGPT OpenAI App ($0)

"This AI is a lifesaver! It helps with everything from brainstorming recipes and editing emails to creating fun, custom bedtime stories for my kids," Gamez says. While it's free to download, you can upgrade to Plus or Pro for $20 and $200, respectively. The more you chat, the more familiar the intelligence becomes, syncing to your history and delivering fast responses for your daily needs or questions.

Hanes Essentials T-Shirt ($9, originally $11)

Gamez appreciates a good T-shirt, and don't we all? No matter what brand you prefer, we can all agree with her mentality on the wardrobe basic: "Simple, versatile, and easy to replace – they're the foundation of any effortless wardrobe." You can pick up a classic Hanes on Amazon in sizes XS-XXL and five different neutral shades.

Sober(ish) You Got This Bracelet ($13, originally $25)

"My 9-year-old daughter, Gabi, once gave me a bracelet that simply said 'You Got This.' It meant so much to me that I decided to create a similar bracelet for our Sober(ish) customers as a reminder, regardless of what they were going through," Gamez explains. "It's amazing to see how this simple gesture has become a source of motivation for so many of our customers." You can shop the beaded charm jewelry in sets of three or five, too.

Nutpods Variety Pack Coffee Creamer ($15)

"Nut Pods are my current obsession! They elevate my coffee, of course, but I also love using them to create delicious Sober(ish) espresso martinis – they're the perfect blend of coffee and creamy goodness for a buzz without the booze," Gamez says. This three-pack, featuring Vanilla Caramel, Cookie Butter, and Sweet Crème, is sweetened with organic cane sugar and made from almonds and coconuts. The mix-in product is gluten-free, non-GMO, vegan, and kosher.

Fresca Citrus Soda (Pack of 12) ($17)

"This unsung hero deserves more recognition!" Gamez says of Fresca. "It's incredibly refreshing on its own, and it's the perfect base for countless mocktail creations." Fresca is caffeine-free, allergen-free, and has a delicious citrus-meets-grapefruit taste. "I even enjoy it in a wine glass with a Sober(ish) Berry Shot for a little extra fun. It's my go-to when I'm craving that 'something special' feeling," she says.

Hlukana Vintage Hobnail Drinking Glasses Set of 8 ($25)

"Let's be honest, drinking anything feels more special from a beautiful glass. Whether it's sparkling water, a mocktail, or even just plain water, a nice glass elevates the experience," Gamez says. This set of eight from Amazon includes 12- and 10-ounce cocktail glasses that are clear and insulated with an embossed texture. They're dishwasher-safe and lead-free.

Uno Casa Cast Iron 10 Inch Tortilla Press ($50)

"A family tradition in the making! This handy tool saves time and makes cooking fun with the kids. Plus, it keeps my husband's culinary heritage alive," Gamez says. This model is super-sized and heavy-duty, measuring 12.5 x 10 x 3 inches, and it's crafted from wood pulp. Gamez considers family time one of her small joys, which is how she practices self-care: "Enough sleep to actually enjoy my kids' craziness, cooking something delicious, and cherishing time with my family, especially my amazing Mexican hubby. These moments fuel me."

Apple Watch Series 10 ($329, originally $399)
