But when you are enduring so much dietary discipline, it can be hard to ignore the temptation to have a glass of wine or a frosty bottle of beer. But will a drink or two negatively impact your keto diet? Are there any alcoholic beverages that are Keto-friendly? Continue reading for some pertinent information on alcohol nutrition to confirm which drinks you can enjoy without throwing you out of ketosis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"673\" src=\"https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wine-Beer-Specials-Downtown-Indianapolis-1024x673.jpg\" alt=\"Beer Wine Specials Downtown Indianapolis \" class=\"wp-image-267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wine-Beer-Specials-Downtown-Indianapolis-1024x673.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wine-Beer-Specials-Downtown-Indianapolis-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wine-Beer-Specials-Downtown-Indianapolis-768x505.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wine-Beer-Specials-Downtown-Indianapolis-1536x1010.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wine-Beer-Specials-Downtown-Indianapolis-456x300.jpg 456w, https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wine-Beer-Specials-Downtown-Indianapolis.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Beer Wine Specials Downtown Indianapolis 317-822-5070<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:25px\"><strong>Alcohol Nutrition and Diet<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter which kind of diet you are following, alcohol is not going to be a kind contribution. Not only is alcohol an appetite stimulant prompting you to eat more the more you drink, but it is also very calorie-dense, so even a little bit can add quite the punch to your daily caloric intake values. Furthermore, your body burns alcohol first before it burns any other fat or macro nutrients from food, which means whatever you put into your body aside from alcohol will be stored as fat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these factors in mind, there may still be some room for you to enjoy a drink or two depending on your particular ketogenic diet plan. The overall consensus among Keto enthusiasts and experts is that a person should consume no more than 50 grams of carbohydrates per day to remain in ketosis. Some prefer lower carb restrictions, while others indulge in the full allotment of carbs per day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><strong>Wine and Keto<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So long as you can enjoy it dry, red, white, or sparkling wine can absolutely be a Keto-friendly beverage! With the average 6 ounce glass of dry wine at only 2 grams of carbohydrates, you can see how you can fit a drink or two in for a special occasion or after a long day at the office. Beware of the sweeter wines however, which can have much higher quantities of sugar, and therefore, more carbohydrates, usually between 5 and 10 grams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><strong>Beer and Keto<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you prefer an ice cold beer after a hard week\u2019s work or on your fishing trip, you can do so while still remaining in ketosis. Many light beers are lower in carbs, such as Corona Premier with 2.6 carbs, Budweiser Select 55 Premium Light with an astonishing 1.8 grams of carbs, Miller Lite with 3 grams of carbs, and Michelob Ultra with 2.6 grams of carbs. Be careful with the darker or fuller bodied beers. After all, beer is known as \u201cliquid bread\u201d as it\u2019s made from grains, so it can really affect a low carb diet plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><strong>Liquor and Keto<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are not much of a beer or wine drinker, and instead prefer a harder cocktail, prepare to indulge as much as you like, within reason of course! Whiskey, vodka, and tequila have 0 carbohydrates. So long as you enjoy these spirits straight up or with a zero-calorie mixer (soda water is a popular choice), you are not going to throw off your ketosis. Keep in mind that these liquors still contain calories; just 1 ounce can have 70 calories. Additionally, liqueurs and cordials like Grand Marnier, triple sec, infused liqueurs, flavored liquors, simple syrups, grenadine, and similar cocktail additions are filled with sugar and carbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Are you looking for some great wine and beer specials in Downtown Indianapolis?<\/strong> Come to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/contact.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">English Ivy\u2019s Pub and Eatery<\/a> tonight for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.englishivys.com\/events.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">$3 Domestics, $3 Wells, and $3 Wines<\/a>!
