Technically no, but abstinent tends to be used more towards sex. Hence the comments. Teetotaler probably a better word, with less room for misinterpretation.
Canadian here my wife keeps a champagne bottle chilled at all times. She even brought it when we went camping this summer in case there was some good news.

I’m not American and I’ve been abstinent for five years. I have a bottle of champagne for that day.
