Alcoholic beverages: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers a range of alcoholic drinks, including beers, wines, spirits, and liqueurs. These products are typically made through fermentation or distillation processes. When looking at packaged alcoholic beverages, the nutrition label may provide information on energy content (calories) and carbohydrates, which can include sugars. The ingredient list will detail all components used in the production of the drink. For some alcoholic beverages, particularly those that are sweetened or mixed, the presence and quantity of sugars can be a notable feature. The UK's dietary guidelines, such as those from the NHS Eatwell Guide, advise that free sugars should not exceed 5% of total dietary energy. The ingredient list will show the order in which ingredients are used, with those present in larger amounts listed first. Salt content is also declared on UK nutrition labels, and the government recommends adults consume no more than 6g of salt per day. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
