The past few years have seen our drinking as a nation reduce somewhat: we’re becoming more health conscious, sober curious and a 2018 study found 30 per cent of younger people never drink at all. Sobriety might not be the only factor here. Keeping the pounds off by reducing sugar or carbohydrates may well be a prime mover. Many types of alcohol are high in carbohydrates — some packing in more carbs per serving than soft drinks, sweets and desserts. Powder sugar, granulated sugars, simple syrup and honey all play their parts behind the bar and that’s before fruit juices are added. For comparison sake, a serving of orange juice is equivalent in sugar content to a third of a can of Coke. Low-carb diets have recently become increasingly popular as an effective way to lose weight and improve health. They typically involve cutting out carbohydrate rich foods like sugar, grains, fruits and starchy vegetables and focus instead on proteins and healthy fats. However, many dieters are uncertain about whether alcohol can be consumed on a low-carb diet, and recommendations on the subject can be conflicting. Just because your customers are on a low-sugar diet doesn’t mean that they can’t indulge a little. Pure forms of alcohol like whiskey, gin, tequila, rum and vodka are all completely sugar-free whereas wines and light beer like Sapporo or Budvar have a minimal carb content. There are plenty of choices out there for those who like a drink and while moderation is key, it doesn’t mean alcohol intake needs to stop completely. So, if millennial customers are cutting out sugar, what can venue managers stock behind the bar? Pickings might not be as slim as you think! Here are a few classic cocktails that are basically sugar-free. You won’t have to ask for supplements or look through long ingredient lists with these ideas we’ve found.
