The Wyandot County Safe Communities Coalition recently hosted its inaugural Zero-Proof Mix Off event. Community organizations were invited to create a drink recipe to share with the community during the mix off. Community members voted for their favorite recipe, which went to Wyandot County Public Health's Shark Bite Sour drink. These recipes are designed to be utilized at gatherings where alcoholic drinks are also being served to provide options for designated drivers and guests choosing to stay sober. Try them all and let us know which one is your favorite on our social media pages @WyandotHealth!
