nonintoxicating
Won't impair judgment
Nonintoxicating describes substances that don't produce intoxication—no drunkenness, no high, no impairment of mental faculties.
The term appears most often in discussions of beverages and drugs: nonintoxicating levels of alcohol, nonintoxicating CBD products.
It's a technical or legal distinction rather than everyday speech.
