New Yorkers are participating in Dry January, a monthlong break from alcohol after the holidays.<\/p>\n
At Barrio BX in Castle Hill, owners say they\u2019re making mocktails to keep customers coming in.<\/p>\n
“It’s more of experience that you come here for. If you want a great cocktail, wonderful. If not, it’s good,” said owner Tony Martinez.<\/p>\n
While some diners say they\u2019re committed to an alcohol-free month, others say Dry January just isn\u2019t for them.<\/p>\n
“I’ve never had a Dry January. I’ve heard of No Shave November, but never Dry January,” said one diner.<\/p>\n
Whether customers go dry or not, Barrio BX owners say it is focused on food, culture and community. The restaurant is open Tuesday through Sunday. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New Yorkers are participating in Dry January, a monthlong break from alcohol after the holidays.
