Understanding Dry January
Dry January is a month-long commitment to abstaining from alcohol, often embraced as a way to reset after the holiday season. For many guests, it’s less about restriction and more about awareness — paying closer attention to how flavors, rituals and moments are experienced without alcohol in the glass.
At Ruth’s Chris Steak House, Dry January is supported through thoughtful beverage options that align with the restaurant’s culinary standards, allowing guests to maintain a refined dining experience while choosing not to drink alcohol.

What Makes a Zero-Proof Cocktail Different?
A zero-proof cocktail is not simply a mixed beverage without alcohol — it is a carefully constructed drink designed to deliver structure, aroma and balance similar to a traditional cocktail.  Ruth’s Chris Clean Cocktails are crafted using Ritual Non-Alcoholic Spirit Alternatives, which provide the botanical complexity and mouthfeel typically associated with spirits. Combined with fresh ingredients and classic cocktail techniques, these drinks are intended to complement steakhouse cuisine rather than distract from it.

How Dealcoholized Wine Is Made
Dealcoholized wine begins its life as traditional wine, fermented and aged using standard winemaking practices. Once complete, the alcohol is gently removed, preserving varietal character, aroma and unique flavor profile.  Our selection of Giesen 0% wines, produced in New Zealand, offers guests the ability to enjoy familiar wine styles during Dry January and throughout the year, without alcohol — making them a natural pairing for steak, seafood, sides and even dessert.

The Evolution of Non-Alcoholic Beer
Advances in brewing technology have significantly elevated the quality of non-alcoholic beer. Modern producers are now able to retain flavor, body, and balance while removing or limiting alcohol.  Ruth’s Chris features a rotating selection of Athletic Brewing Company’s award-winning non-alcoholic beers, offering guests a refined alternative that fits seamlessly into a steakhouse setting.

Pairing Steakhouse Classics Without Alcohol
Great pairings aren’t defined solely by alcohol content. Acidity, texture, temperature and flavor intensity all play a role in how beverages interact with food.  Zero-proof cocktails, dealcoholized wines and non-alcoholic beers can enhance rich cuts of beef, seafood and savory sides by cleansing the palate and highlighting key flavors — providing a complete dining experience for guests observing Dry January or simply choosing to forego alcohol.
