Sugar-Free Tonic Waters you need to know about. Tonic water. It is that bitter drink that is an acquired taste. You know, the drink that contains quinine and that is commonly mixed with gin – or mixed in another cocktail or drunk by itself (personally I quite like it mixed with plain cranberry juice). But exactly what is the sugar content of tonic water? Well, I established in a previous post I researched and wrote that most tonic waters contain 7.4g-13.5g of sugar per 150ml servings, and “light” tonic waters contain 2.7g-4g of total sugar per 150ml serving.

So naturally I have talked about Zevia several times before here at Low Sugar Snax. For example, in the post I wrote on the sugar content of ginger beer (Does Ginger Beer Contain A Lot of Sugar), cola (Which Colas Contain No Sugar? You Need To Try These), orange soda (Which Orange Soda Has The Most Sugar and Which Are Sugar-Free) and root beer (How Much Sugar is in Root Beer – Hint More Than Coke!).

11 Sugar-Free Tonic Waters You Need To Know About! – The Final Bite

Sugar-free tonic waters you need to know. What have we learned from the above? Well, I must admit I was surprised to find that so many grocery stores have their own-brand version of tonic water. And not just regular tonic water, but diet versions. Tonic water has such a specific taste that I wouldn’t have expected diet versions to be so widely available. But they are. When selecting which zero sugar tonic water the main thing you want to look out for is the type of alternative sweetener used as this varies across different brands. And, if you do not want to use them for G&T I highly recommend mixing it with some plain low-sugar cranberry juice and a squeeze of lime over ice for a refreshing and delicious drink.
