The Benefits of low calorie spirits
Share
In an era where health and wellness are at the forefront of many people's minds, the choices we make about what we consume are under more scrutiny than ever before. Alcoholic beverages, particularly spirits, are often associated with high calorie counts and negative health impacts. However, with the advent of low-calorie low-alcohol spirits, it’s possible to enjoy the flavour and experience of your favourite cocktails without the guilt.
Understanding the Calories in Traditional Spirits
Traditional spirits, such as gin and rum, can pack a hefty caloric punch. For instance, a standard serving of 1.5 ounces (about 44ml) of gin or rum typically contains around 97 calories. This calorie count can quickly escalate if you add mixers, which are often high in sugars and calories themselves. A mixed drink can easily exceed 200 calories after adding juice, soda or tonic water.
