The Sober Curator launched this pilot sober lifestyle show (a video podcast hybrid) on Valentine’s Day of 2021, shining a Sober Spotlight on Amir Islam of Seattle, and mixing up some rose flavored DIY mocktails at home with Sober Curator Nik Popkow of @Tonix.Mocktails from Los Angeles. Get ready of 45 minutes of fun because these three are sober not boring!

At The Sober Curator, our glass is always half-full, there’s just no booze in it. Grab yourself an alcohol-free bevie of choice, your favorite snacks, and settle in to enjoy this 45 minute pilot episode. In this pilot, we will explore Recovery TikTok, shine a Sober Spotlight of Amir Islam of Raised from the Dead, and learn how to make three easy rose flavored mocktails at home. Rose ice balls anyone? Is that a thing? (Spoiler alert: maybe it shouldn’t be)

What is The Sober Curator?

Think of us as your sober concierges. The Sober Curator is intended to be a resource for those seeking content related to recovery or a zero-proof lifestyle. We aren’t in the business of telling anyone how to get sober. That’s just not our lane.

We are in the business of keeping any person seeking an alcohol free lifestyle entertained and informed by curating, reviewing, and contributing fun and interesting recovery content.

Follow along with us!

We’ll show you how to get plugged in with the latest swag, merch, podcasts, books, movies, fashion, music and events, proving that sobriety and life without alcohol is never boring! Getting sober is hard enough, finding good content about recovery and sober living doesn’t have to be.

Amir Islam of Raised from the Dead

Want to keep tabs on Amir Islam from Raised from the Dead? You can peep out his Instagram account here so you know when he gets ready to drop his merch. His lifestyle brand creatively normalizing recovery and we are here for it!

Just a Merry Mocktail Monday series with @Tonix.Mocktails gives us the 4-1-1 on how to set-up a sober bar at home
