Mother's Day is just around the corner, and it's caught up with us too quickly. If you're also on the lookout for a last-minute gift, we've got a brilliant idea for you – plus it's on sale, which we always like to hear.
The big day always becomes trickier when your mum is being sensible. The diet or the health kick tends to get in the way of the classic gifts – chocolate, biscuits... wine. Well, we have some good news for you — low-calorie wines are a thing.
What is low calorie wine?
But, how does low-calorie wine work? By allowing natural yeasts to work their magic and eat up available sugar during the fermentation process, it keeps the sugar in the wine low while preserving depth and flavour.
Made without synthetic pesticides or chemical additives, they’re a cleaner choice for those who appreciate sustainable sipping.
Did you know low-calorie wines can reduce hangovers?
Surely a blessing to anyone's ears, low-calorie wines have been linked to reduced hangovers. Nutritionist Sal Hanvey says: “Wines with high sugar content can make people feel worse the next day due to a combination of factors".
Regular wine has also been shown to rapidly increase the chances of developing a beer belly. Drinkwell's experts show the main way to drastically decrease this possibility is watching your calorie intake without having to cut back completely on alcohol.
On the whole, low-calorie and zero-sugar wines are better because they're easier on blood sugar, have a lower toxin load and offer hydration balance.
So, let's match your mum to her perfect wine...
