WHY IT'S KETO-FRIENDLY

  • Zero net carbs: pure distilled ethanol + water + botanicals
  • Botanical flavor: juniper/herbs add aroma without carbs
  • Versatile: pairs with club-soda, sparkling-water, or diet-soda
  • No added sugar in traditional gin styles
  • Easy tracking: straight pours stay at 0g carbs
  • Satisfying complexity can reduce the need for sweet mixers

HEALTH BENEFITS

  • Juniper-forward botanicals provide aromatic polyphenols (flavor focus, not a health supplement)
  • Lower congener content than many aged spirits (may be perceived as “cleaner” for some)
  • Carb-free choice supports keto adherence when alcohol is consumed
  • Pairs well with zero-carb hydration mixers to moderate intake

GIN AND SODA

1.5 oz gin topped with club-soda or sparkling-water, plus lemon or cucumber—light and crisp.

VERY DRY MARTINI

2 oz gin stirred cold with a splash of dry vermouth; strain. Express lemon or add an olive.
