Low-Carb Cocktail Keto Alcohol Drink Recipes
If you are more interested in cocktails or mixed drinks, here are a few recipes for you to try out!
All of these drinks are low in carbs, but definitely count the carbs as you make each drink so that you can keep track on your own.
Low-Carb Mudslide
Yes, you can still have a mudslide! This is often considered a major no-no due to all the sugar, but you are not going to add excess sugar to your drink.
You can use your liquor of choice, then add in some unsweetened almond milk, heavy cream, and sugar-free chocolate syrup.
Blend it together with ice for a yummy keto-friendly treat.
Irish Cream
Bailey’s Irish Cream is usually not something you can enjoy while on the keto diet, but this is a keto-friendly copycat recipe.
You will use Irish whiskey, almond and vanilla extract, heavy cream, cocoa powder, espresso powder, and a keto-friendly sweetener like Swerve.
It should be cooked on the stove, simmered, then cooled up and stored in a bottle.
Strawberry Mojito
Do you like the minty flavor of a mojito? If so, you can mix up this low-carb version of a fruity strawberry mojito.
What you want to use is sugar-free strawberry juice or go for any mix you want, like strawberry lemonade. Add that to your white rum and add in some fresh mint that is mashed to release its minty flavor.
Add a bit of seltzer to it, and your mojito is ready to go!
Bloody Mary
A bloody mary is actually easy to turn into a low-carb drink. You can use vodka for the drink, preferably about 80 proof, then want to add tomato juice, but about half the amount a typical bloody mary would have.
You can then add in some celery salt, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, horseradish, and Tabasco sauce.
Cosmopolitan
Last up is the cosmopolitan. This is fun whether you are mixing up cocktails during a birthday party or you want to haves omething nice to drink when girlfriends are over.
The keto-friendly cosmopolitan uses vodka instead of Triple Sec, then sugar-free or diet cranberry juice.
Don’t just get light, as that still has some sugar and carbs in it.
You can also add some orange extract, lime juice, artificial sweetener, and a lime wedge.
