Le défi de janvier
Une pause de consommation
Dry January, or literally janvier sec, which is complete abstinence from alcohol for the entire month,
is also practiced by some in France. It's an annual, multi-national and unofficial public health movement that has been gradually catching on in France for the past 5 or 6 years. I recently noticed special mention of it near the wine and alcohol section of a local supermarket where non-alcoholic alternatives were being promoted for the challenge or défi.
