Tag: Long drinks

According to manufacturers like The Finnish Long Drink Company, their zero-sugar products are sweetened with artificial alternatives like sucralose and acesulfame potassium. While traditional versions use real sugar, it is common for low-calorie or diet versions of long drinks to contain 'fake sugar' to reduce calorie counts. This trend is driven by growing consumer demand for lighter, healthier-seeming alcoholic beverages.

This surprising reality highlights a critical question for those focused on diet and nutrition: **What makes long drinks high in calories**? The answer lies in the potent combination of alcohol and high-sugar mixers that add significant energy without nutritional value.
