About Alcoholic beverage, distilled, all (gin, rum, vodka, whiskey) 86 proof
This clear, potent spirit is a distilled alcoholic beverage that delivers a strong punch in a small serving. At 86 proof, it contains 40% alcohol by volume, making it one of the more concentrated forms of alcohol available. With 250 calories per 100 grams, it's entirely energy from alcohol, as it contains no protein, carbohydrates, fat, or fiber. The body metabolizes alcohol differently from other macronutrients, and these calories provide no nutritional value beyond energy.
Often used as a base for cocktails or consumed neat, this spirit serves as a versatile ingredient in both classic and modern mixed drinks. Its neutral flavor profile (particularly in vodka) or distinctive character (in whiskey or rum) allows it to blend well with various mixers, from simple soda water to complex cocktail ingredients. While it can be part of moderate social drinking, it's important to note that alcohol consumption should be approached thoughtfully, as it can affect hydration, sleep quality, and overall health when consumed in excess. For those monitoring their caloric intake or following specific dietary patterns, these spirits represent pure alcohol calories without any accompanying nutrients.
