Message: <blockquote data-quote="Hampshire_Lad" data-source="post: 1763640" data-attributes="member: 424953">Hi,I've been reading my new Carbs and Cals book and am quite surprised to see that spirits such as rum, vodka and whiskey have zero carbs?I was under the assumption that most alcoholic drinks were a no no for type 2's like me, so this has come as quite a pleasant development.I see that the calorific content of these drinks is high though, but we have to get our energy from somewhere! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> I have never been a big drinker but I do miss a nice pint of cider on hot sunny evenings. (cider has a large amount of carbs in it according to my book and should be avoided) Do any of you fellow type 2's fit spirits such as these into your weekly routine? And if so, how much do you consume?</blockquote>
