Sounds stupid but I'm going to a family memorial soon in a pub and I've just been told I have background retinopathy so just been drinking water not pop and I don't want to drink water all evening so curious what I can drink that won't spike my Blood readings.
 
I would have Diet Coke, with ice and a lemon slice to make it look better. Beware Fevertree tonic, the low sugar version isn't.
 
I often have sparkling mineral water, with lemon slice and some ice. Pretend to myself it is gin.
 
I start with a small glass of white wine AND a very large glass of fizzy water. As I sip from the first, I top it up from the second so the wine gets weaker and weaker. No one ever notices, not even me!
