On the subject of better and less expensive drinks ... Luxardo is cheaper than Disaronno and WAY WAY WAY better.
That said, I mostly avoid liquers now and stick to Whiskey since im more focused on the carb/glucose budget than the dollars of money budget.

Haven't drunk any whiskey in over 6 months I figure, when I do it's maybe a 1/2 jigger of good sipping whiskey. But last night I poured maybe a jigger into a hot skillet in which I'd fried a steak. Swished around with a silicone spatula and poured over the steak on a plate. Recipe I encountered decades ago.
 
I really don't know. Since covid, I've had a drink just about every day. I tried cutting myself off recently, but yesterday ended my 2 week stoppage. I won't try again until after the 4th of July. Going to visit family, and guess what we mostly do.
 
I think 90 days is doable. I wasn’t really a “drinker” prior to Covid, but have been enjoying a shot of vodka on a near daily basis. I did January as a dry month, now doing June the same. It’s good to take a step back and make sure that it’s not controlling life / behavior

coffee OTOH would be a much more difficult habit to break for me

Totally, but I have gone without coffee for many days, probably weeks and it didn't affect me physically or emotionally. However, I do drink it daily. Alcohol has never been a problem for me. Occasionally I get on a daily thing with it, about 3 ounces of cabernet with dinner, but it's been months since I have done that. Now, I do that maybe 1-2 days a week averaging it out. Quite often I wind up not drinking that glass (no struggle, I just forget) and pour it back in the bottle.
 
Yes, but why? If I live long enough for drinking to matter I'll be surprised. I'll also have lived a kick-ass life with lots of alcohol.
 
Sure, but why would I?

I drink a quality beer now and then, single malt, rum or other spirit and wine in social context. It tastes good and there is no harm in it.

If the real question is, can you go 100 days without getting drunk. Yes, no problem I can’t remember the last time I was drunk.
 
I like dark beer and red wine in particular however I could go 100 days without drinking without even thinking about it.... in fact its been weeks since I had a drink now.
