We use Zevia as well. DH has T2D and he does just fine with those.

Hey all, when the need arises for a gin, is it ok to mix with diet soda, I see theres no carbs but was thinking it might play with blood levels, or diet tonic water I guess?

Not read any of the other posts, but IMHO NO!
Well what is diet soda then I ask, is it sugar free or just reduced sugar, If reduced sugar then still 1/2 fructose and still 1/2 glucose but just reduced quantity

If surly sugar free then surly they would market it as sugar free. But when they do the sugar free thing, it is usually replaced with artificial sweeteners with names that I can not remember now (but go and check a can of the stuff out to find the name in the ingredients) but usually more harm to the liver then fructose and has zero goodness and calories in it what so ever

I like a Gin, and if I lived in a place where tonic was grown (good for colds and feever!) then I would go and pinch a bit off of some wild grown plant somewhere while in season; but i don’t, so I like to mix it 1/2 and 1/2 with a squeezed lemon or lime, but first dunking the lemon wedge in pure glucose/ brew sugar then rimming the glass with it. Which I will be doing later on no doubt
