Good morning.
Speaker A:It's haystack.
Speaker A:It's Friday, of course, and if you partake in adult beverages, you may already be thinking about whether you'll have a drink after a week like this, whether you're ready to let loose or whatever.
Speaker A:But according to this new report, many Gen Z and millennials don't plan on drinking ahead of time.
Speaker A:Nearly half, 47% said that they make the decision in the middle of their evening.
Speaker A:Just kind of depends on where the night takes them.

Speaker A:Gen Z lean towards cocktails and mocktails, while millennials prefer beer.

Speaker A:The best parts about a night out, according to the report, are good company, shared laughter, and genuine connection.

Speaker A:I don't think, I don't think they drink as heavily.
Speaker A:I mean, I'm on the older end of millennial, I guess, technically, but I, I don't think that the younger generations I see now drink nearly as heavily as the older generations did.
Speaker A:And I'm not sure that that's not a good thing.
Speaker A:But I also think sometimes it's silly to wait until the middle of the night.
