    New Zealanders are making healthier choices when it comes to alcohol according to industry groups

    New Zealanders are making healthier choices when it comes to alcohol according to industry groups


    A recent NZ Health survey's found 83-percent of Kiwi adults drink responsibly, a bump on previous numbers.

    It coincides with an increase in low and no-alcohol options.

    Alcohol Beverages Council's Virginia Nicholls is reminding people to continue making good choices amid the holiday celebrations.

    She says alcohol harm is also being reduced, and they want that trend to continue.
