Dry January is in Full Swing at Windsor Run

Windsor Run is raising the bar with chef-crafted, zero-proof recipes to bring residents together as they start off a fresh new year.

Matthews, N.C. - Happy New Year! Dry January is in full swing, and as the trend continues to gain momentum, Windsor Run, an Erickson Senior Living community in Matthews, N.C., is raising the bar—literally—with chef-crafted, zero-proof recipes that bring people together in a fresh, flavorful way.

Throughout January, residents are enjoying mocktails and alcohol-free recipes made with fresh ingredients, seasonal flavors, and a focus on wellness. These aren’t your average “skip the booze” drinks—they’re vibrant, creative, and designed to make Dry January feel like a celebration, not a sacrifice.

Every Tuesday in the Tavern 1879 at Windsor Run, residents enjoy Tavern Tuesday, where they toast to good health.
