My sister-in-law is keen to be sugar free but drink of choice is bourbon and cola - any suggestions how to get around the mixer problem?
I understand that having diet cola avoids the sugar but still allows the body to maintain its craving for sweetness which is what we want to cut out.
Has anyone found a non sugar or sweetener option?
Hi Gary,
I don't think diet drinks are a bad thing at the start as David himself said he drank loads of it while he went through withdrawals (I think it was Pepsi-Max). I loved pre mixed gin and tonic but now I just have gin and diet tonic with a slice of lemon when I decide I want a drink. I personally try to aviod diet drinks in general but if I want something sweet at work I find a diet coke does the job nicely and using it as a mixer on the odd occasion for a drink wouldn't be the end of the world I'd think :)
Sam :)
