Perimenopause & Alcohol: Why Jeng Is the Smarter Sip

Perimenopause marks a profound transition—a shift not just in hormones, but in how many women relate to their bodies, minds, and everyday rituals. For many, what once felt like harmless habits — like a nightly glass of wine — suddenly start to work against them.
Think: disrupted sleep, intensified hot flashes, anxious nights, and groggy mornings.
As awareness around these changes grows, more women are rethinking alcohol altogether. The rise of sober-curious lifestyles isn’t about missing out, it’s about leveling up. It’s about honoring your evolving needs, protecting your peace, and prioritizing what makes you feel good.
That’s where Jeng comes in: a sparkling, hemp-infused, zero-proof cocktail that offers a refined way to unwind. No alcohol necessary.
Let’s explore why Jeng is the smarter sip for women navigating perimenopause and beyond.
What Happens During Perimenopause?
Perimenopause is the transitional phase leading up to menopause, typically beginning in your 40s (though it can start as early as your late 30s). During this time, estrogen and other hormone levels fluctuate, creating a ripple effect that can impact sleep, energy, mood, and more.
Common symptoms include:
- Hot flashes and night sweats
- Sleep disruptions
- Mood swings and anxiety
-
Brain fog and fatigue
These changes are completely normal, but they can be amplified by lifestyle choices, especially alcohol. While a cocktail might seem like a quick fix after a long day, it often fuels the very symptoms you’re trying to ease.
Menopause Alcohol Intolerance: What the Science Says
Many women report that alcohol suddenly feels… different. Even one glass can trigger insomnia, hot flashes, or next-day anxiety. This isn’t imagined — it’s physiological.
Menopause alcohol intolerance stems from the body’s changing relationship with alcohol. Decreasing estrogen, a slower metabolism, and reduced liver efficiency all play a role. Your body doesn’t process alcohol the way it used to, and the effects are stronger and more disruptive.
That nightcap? It’s no longer relaxing — it’s agitating. That celebratory toast? More likely to lead to flushed cheeks and foggy thoughts.
Understanding these shifts helps you make more aligned choices — and opens the door to smarter sips that support your well-being instead of sabotaging it.
The Rise of the Sober Menopause Lifestyle

With more women embracing intentional living during this chapter, the sober menopause lifestyle is gaining serious momentum. This isn’t about restriction — it’s about reclaiming clarity, vitality, and emotional balance.
Saying no to alcohol means saying yes to:
- Better sleep
- Clearer thinking
- More stable moods
- Healthier mornings
-
Hormonal harmony
Instead of defaulting to wine or spirits, women are turning to functional, wellness-aligned drinks — like hemp-infused cocktails or adaptogenic spritzers — that work with their bodies, not against them.
The sober menopause lifestyle is about freedom. It’s about elevated choices, better rituals, and drinks that actually make you feel good.
