Heh I have a funny story on this:

My buddy (non-drinker at the time) had a job that required him to grease the wheels with clients and a major lubricant was alcohol.

He came up with an idea: cranberry juice in a wine glass

Everything seemed to be going swimmingly well, till one of the senior clients came up to him and whispered in his ear: "it works better if you don't put ice cubes in there" :)

Anyway, he started drinking pretty quickly after and hasn't looked back since.
