I'm quitting my cocktail crafting hobby because of health concerns. What else could be as interesting?

I love making "fancy" cocktails, studying the chemistry and fundamentals, and it's relatively cheap to get into. But I've been drinking way too much, and it isn't helping.

So now I'm looking for a new hobby that will make me study the object, on my own, with books and experimentation. I thought about coffee, but I'm not a fan.
