    Toast to Friendship: Elevate Your Galentine’s Day with Jøyus Non-Alcoholic Wine

    Gather your girlfriends and indulge in a night in with Jøyus non-alcoholic wine, the perfect companion for extending your sober January into February and beyond. This award-winning wine, proudly owned by women and crafted with sobriety in mind, offers a refreshing alternative to traditional alcoholic beverages.

    Unlike other non-alcoholic wines that often carry an overly sweet or grape juice-like taste, Jøyus boasts a sophisticated flavor profile that rivals its alcoholic counterparts. With its delightfully dry and complex character, Jøyus has even the most discerning wine enthusiasts reaching for a second, or even a third, glass. Its accolades from prestigious competitions such as The San Francisco International Wine Competition and the International Wine and Spirits Competition (IWSC) in London speak volumes about its quality and craftsmanship.

    Jøyus non-alcoholic wine is more than just a beverage; it’s a testament to the joy of savoring a glass of wine without compromising on taste or experience. Whether you’re embarking on a sober journey, exploring alcohol-free options, or simply seeking a moment of relaxation, Jøyus is the perfect choice. Its versatility makes it ideal for any occasion, whether it’s a cozy night in with friends, a celebratory gathering, or a quiet evening of self-care. With Jøyus, you can enjoy the pleasure of wine while embracing the peace of mind that comes with choosing a non-alcoholic option.

    Here’s my favorite one – Jøyus Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Rosé.

    Meet the first non-alcoholic wine to win Gold in—not only a completely blind tasting—but one of the biggest and oldest wine competitions in the world. She’s gone on to additional Double Gold and Best in Class honors.

    Jøyus Non-Alcoholic Sparkling Rosé is a delicious way to celebrate. Did you get out of bed today? Pop that cork. Do the laundry? Open one up. Get that big promotion? Start pouring.

    Wine speak: Pacific northwest notes of ripe blackberries, summer strawberries and California citrus blossoms are the perfect balance of west coast flavors.

    Pairings: Jøyus Sparkling Rosé goes well with a night out (or in) with friends, good times, and a clean and folded load of laundry. 

    As Galentine’s Day approaches, what better way to celebrate the special bond of friendship than with a bottle of Jøyus non-alcoholic wine? Whether you’re hosting a Galentine’s Day brunch or planning a girls’ night in, Jøyus sets the stage for laughter, love, and cherished memories.


    Raise a glass to the amazing women in your life and toast to the power of friendship, all while savoring the delicious taste of Jøyus. So, why not elevate your Galentine’s Day celebration with Jøyus non-alcoholic wine? Whether you’re a seasoned wine aficionado or just beginning your exploration of alcohol-free alternatives, Jøyus invites you to savor every sip and celebrate life’s moments with clarity and joy.

    The Mountains Are Calling and HeatHolders Answered

    I am from Toronto, where winter tests your will to live. It gets so cold and we love to do all the winter sports. I have lived ‘in the sun’ for the last 7 years, which has changed my perception of cold. Vegas cold isn’t even freezing!

    We ventured up to Lee Canyon for snow play and skiing and we were impressed by Heatholders. Heat Holders®, known as the makers of the world’s warmest thermal socks, have expanded their expertise into additional clothing options.

    Niko was able to test out the gloves and stayed warm and dry the entire time! The Snowflake Performance Gloves are comfortable and easy to put on and he even said they are just like socks. The cuff was so very soft and I was happy to have them when we went skiing.

    “The design includes a dual insulation system: our luxuriously soft, plush HeatWeaver® lining provides soft comfort and maximizes the amount of warm air that is held close to your skin, while the additional Thinsulate™ insulation provides extra warmth and breathability.

    The knitted cuff seals in the heat comfortably, while a hook-and-loop fastening strap and roller system lets you adjust the closeness for a custom fit around the wrist. A special, textured grip on the palms of these practical and efficient gloves stops fumbling or slipping while holding items like ski poles or walking sticks.”

    With Heat Holders Midlayer collection of jackets, fleeces, pants, and puffers, there are various options to keep you warm, comfortable and safe during the cold winter months and beyond. The versatile options help you stay warm and dry in the changeable weather of Spring and Fall, as well as being great for layering in the cold of winter.

    The Lydia V Neck is my dream apres ski top and I have worn it 3 days in a row since. It is ultra soft, flattering, and long enough to cover your butt.  I was very warm with this layer and it was just right for the weather at Mount Charleston. Nonfuzzy fleece is now my new winter must-have! They also have matching pants that go with them.

    Made from the softest fabric we could find, the Women’s Lydia LITE™ V-Neck Lounge Top is a long-sleeved top, featuring non-chafing seams and perfect stretch, for all-day wearability and comfort. Designed with pouch pockets for extra convenience, and to help you keep your hands warm!

    I can’t wait to try out more products from this line and was so happy to test it out during our Las Vegas winter this week!

    Whether lounging at home, exercising, running errands, or even traveling, Heat Holders® is perfect for every person and every occasion. Made with HeatWeaver® technology and zip closures, the Midlayer collection is ideal for both layering or wearing alone. Heat Holders® products are available for purchase on Amazon, Target, Walmart, and several other retailers nationwide. For more information, check out the Heat Holders® website.
