How about you do something now that will break with your habit of getting that first drink? It's helped me before. A couple of times I have picked up a mop and cleaned the kitchen floor instead of gulping down that first drink. It did help me to allay the anxiety that I get leading up to that first one.
(My kitchen floor is pretty clean by now.)
You could do something different, of course - whatever isn't in your usual routine.
Just an idea.
