Teetotaling (or teetotalism)

 Teetotaling (or teetotalism) is the practice of completely abstaining from alcoholic beverages, a commitment made by "teetotalers," who avoid all spirits, wine, and beer for personal, health, or moral reasons. The word originated in England in the 1830s, emphasizing "total" abstinence (a "T-Total"), and has seen a rise in interest with modern trends in health and sophisticated non-alcoholic drink options.
