Tag: Pink gin sugar content

Over 54% of pink gin drinkers previously did not drink gin, drawn in by its sweeter flavour profile and attractive colour. However, this appeal has led many to wonder: is pink gin full of sugar? The answer is more complex than you might think, depending entirely on the brand and type of spirit you choose.

According to Drinkaware, alcohol contains around seven calories per gram, nearly as many as pure fat, and this applies to pink gin just as much as other spirits. Many believe that because pink gin has a fruity flavor, it must have more calories, but this isn't necessarily true and largely depends on the brand and mixer used.
