10. [Dry] Sparkling Wine
A great choice for anyone on my list of the 11 best alcoholic drinks for diabetics type 1 or type 2 is sparkling wine. More specifically, dry sparkling wine. In fact, the dryer the better when it comes to drinks for diabetics. You will find in most cases that the amount of calories and carbohydrates in specific types of alcohol varies by brand, but your average 4 oz. serving of champagne will have between 84-105 calories and about 6 carbs. Most pink champagnes have slightly lower numbers than that. And as tasty as they may sound, you’re going to want to steer clear of the sweeter varieties. Even counting those out altogether, you still have plenty of options when it comes to the sparkling wine that suits your taste; which is what makes this such a good option.
