Hey, folks,
Maybe some of you have some insight or experience on this subject.
I’m a recovering alcoholic and I haven’t had a drop of booze in over six years. In fact, I work as a substance abuse counselor.
I’ve noticed that a lot of rituals involve wine or some other alcoholic offering. The fact that ritual and practice is a personal thing and subject to our own interpretations, do you find in completely necessary to use alcohol for rituals, or do substitutions (water, juice, etc.) work perfectly fine?

Hello,
When I work with La Santa. Muerte or Baron of the Cemetery. I give them hard liquor as an offering. I might take a shot or 2. You can substitute if you are in recovery.

No, alcohol is never absolutely necessary. It’s just a perk of the physical world that spirits seem to enjoy. It has a basis in tradition (alcoholic beverages aren’t called “spirits” for nothing), but, as with all things, it can always be replaced with something else.
