Attention, ingredient geeks: Did you know not all alcoholic drinks are created equal? When it comes to histamine and sugar content, your choices can make or break your holiday celebrations. Skip the post-party slump and celebrate with these gut-friendly, low-histamine options instead.

Histamine Alert: Clear Spirits for the Win

Clear spirits like vodka, gin, and 100% agave tequila are your go-to for a reason. Distilled to perfection, they’re naturally lower in histamines, keeping the festive vibes high and the fallout low.
Skip This: Aged and dark liquors like whiskey and rum, which come with a side of histamines you don’t need.

Herbs Over Sugar: Flavour with Benefits

Sugary mixers? Hard pass. Instead, fresh herbs like mint, basil, and thyme step in to deliver gut-friendly flavour without the sugar spike.
Pro Move: Try soda water with a sprig of rosemary and a squeeze of lime for a refreshing twist that’s as good for your gut as it is for your glass.

Wine Wisdom: Sip Smart

Red wine may feel festive, but its high histamine content says otherwise. Switch to organic, low-sulfite whites, or pop some Prosecco for bubbly fun that’s kinder to your body.
Fun Fact: Sparkling wines are typically lower in histamines than their red cousins, so they’re an easy win for holiday toasts.

Smart Sipping Hacks

  1. Hydrate Smarter: Pair every drink with a glass of water and a pinch of Celtic sea salt for an electrolyte boost.
  2. Bone Broth First: Pre-party, sip on Gevity Rx® Body Glue® for a collagen-rich head start that supports hydration and your gut.
  3. Skip the Sugar Bombs: Mix your spirits with soda water, fresh citrus, or a splash of organic juice for a cleaner cocktail.
