Keto-Friendly Drinks

Some drinks are a big no-no for those following a keto diet. However, there are still plenty of refreshing and tasty keto-friendly drinks available. If you’re wondering what drinks are keto-friendly, take a look here for some inspiration:

  • Water - with zero calories, sugar or additives, water is always a top keto drink of choice.
  • Tea (black and herbal) and coffee - though you’ll need to avoid high carb additions like regular milk, sweetened creamers, sugar, honey and flavouring syrups.
  • Some fruit and vegetable juices - most fruit juice is high in natural sugar, making them inappropriate for the keto diet. However, lime or lemon juice can be enjoyed, as well as cucumber and celery juice, for instance.
  • Sparkling water - including every flavour of DASH! Try raspberry, peach, grapefruit sparkling water and more!
  • Almond and coconut milk (unsweetened) - low in carbs, these dairy-alternatives are great keto-friendly drinks.
  • Low sugar kombucha - this can be consumed in moderation on a keto diet, but always make sure to check the label carefully. Look for options with less than 2g of carbs per serving.
  • Keto smoothies - you can make your daily smoothie with water or unsweetened almond milk as the base. Adding low-carb berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries in moderation), spinach, kale or avocado is a failsafe way to ensure your healthy smoothie is keto.

FAQs

Can you drink milk on keto?

+ -

Traditional cow's milk is usually a no-go on keto. It might be creamy, but it’s also full of naturally occurring sugars (lactose), which pack in more carbs than you’d want on a keto diet. Just one cup of whole milk has around 12g of carbs, which can quickly add up and derail your keto diet. Instead, opt for unsweetened almond or coconut milk, which offer the creamy feel without the carbs. So, if you’re craving a splash of something smooth in your coffee, there are keto-friendly alternatives that can keep you on track!

Can you drink alcohol on keto?

+ -

Yes, you can enjoy alcohol while following a keto diet - but choose your tipple wisely! Some drinks fit keto better than others. Pure spirits like vodka, gin, tequila and whiskey are carb-free, meaning they can be enjoyed without throwing off your macros. However, mixers are where the trouble lies; skip sugary sodas or juices and go for sparkling water (hello, DASH!), soda water, or a simple twist of lime. Dry wines and light beers are also lower in carbs than their sweeter counterparts. Moderation is key, though, as alcohol can slow down fat burning in the body. Keep it low-carb and enjoy responsibly!
