WHY TO LIMIT IT ON KETO

  • Relatively low net carbs (~2g/100ml), similar to dry wines
  • Brut/Extra Brut have minimal residual sugar compared with sweeter styles
  • Occasion-friendly: a 4–5 oz pour can fit most keto carb budgets
  • Pairs well with high-fat, low-carb foods (cheese, seafood) to balance macros
  • Carb impact is predictable versus sugary cocktails
  • Works best when alcohol intake is limited and meals are otherwise very low carb

HEALTH BENEFITS

  • Contains grape-derived polyphenols with antioxidant activity
  • Moderate alcohol intake is associated with certain cardiovascular benefits in some populations
  • Very low sugar compared with sweet wines or mixed drinks
  • Dry styles minimize glycemic impact relative to sugary beverages
  • May enhance meal enjoyment and adherence when used sparingly
  • Lower calorie option versus many cocktails or beer (per serving)

PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS

CELEBRATION TOAST

Enjoy 4–5 oz of Brut in a flute—small, intentional pours keep carbs in check.

BRUNCH SPECIAL

Pair a ~4 oz glass with eggs, bacon, and avocado for a festive, keto-friendly brunch.

SPARKLING SPRITZ

Dilute 2 oz Champagne with 2–4 oz sparkling-water and a twist of lemon to stretch flavor per carb.

CHAMPAGNE PAN SAUCE

Deglaze a skillet with Champagne, reduce, and finish with butter and mustard for chicken or fish (alcohol cooks off; carb contribution per serving stays low).
