Chattanooga’s zero-proof scene is growing, and local bars and restaurants are proving you don’t need alcohol for a great drink. Here are some spots where you can grab a mocktail.

Little Coyote
This St. Elmo restaurant has more than just delicious smoked BBQ — try its zero-proof margarita or paloma.

Rosecomb
This North Shore spot has options including The Natasha, made with hibiscus, Bengal spice tea, ginger, pineapple, and lime. If you’re looking for something to warm you up, try their mulled apple cider.

Oddstory Brewing Co. + The Greenhouse
Grab a non-alcoholic beer, mocktail, sparkling “wine,” kombucha, or cider. We want to try The Greenhouse’s Beach Bum.

Wooden City
Five zero-proof drinks are on the menu at this downtown restaurant, but the one that caught our eye is Fizz, made with berries, coconut cream, cinnamon, nutmeg, and soda.

Hot To Go is sure to warm you up on a cold day, made with Seedlip Grove, lemongrass, cinnamon, chilis, and lemon.

Easy Bistro
Head to West Village to try this restaurant’s newest zero-proof cocktails: Hot To Go and Easy Teasey. Hot To Go is a non-alcoholic hot toddy, while Easy Teasey is a twist on a gin and tonic.

Broads Lounge
Along with non-alcoholic wines, beers, and canned aperitifs, you can sip on house mocktails like the Pink Pony Club, Born This Way, or Hit Me Hard & Soft. Cheers to our favorite pop girlies.

The Social
This downtown spot features a seasonal + sparkling zero-proof mule if you’re looking to sip on something bubbly.

Unknown Caller
Choose from three zero-proof cocktails, including one called Warmer Weather, made with Seedlip Spice, hibiscus, pineapple, lime, and egg white.

Bonus: Learn how to make your own craft mocktails at home after taking a class with The Chattery. The next in-person class is on Monday, Jan. 12.
