Which Types of Hard Alcohol Have No Sugars or Carbs?
Watching what you eat while still trying to have a few drinks can be tough, but cutting out the beer and wine and sticking to hard alcohol can be helpful. Hard alcohol contains no sugar or carbs. Even though it’s made from natural sugars–fruits, grains, sugarcane, berries–those sugars are converted to alcohol during the fermentation and distillation process. Stick with straight alcohol, though. Cocktails and mixed drinks will be full of sugary sodas and fruit juices. Hard alcohol does, however, contain calories, so anyone on a weight loss plan needs to be careful when it comes to alcohol intake.
