Many people do not realise that a lot of alcoholic drinks are not vegan, which is sometimes due to the way they are made. You can discover which wine, beer, and liquor you can drink to be kind to animals, and there is a lot!
Why Is Some Alcohol Not Vegan?
Some alcoholic drinks are not vegan due to ingredients they contain. With others it is because of manufacturing processes.
When making the product, dairy, honey, and other things are ingredients in the final recipe.
These ingredients don’t usually show up on the label, so the only way to find out is to ask.
When filtering the drinks prior to bottling, companies can use things like isinglass (from fish bladder,) gelatin, egg whites, and sea shells, among other things. These products grab onto the impurities and make it easier to catch them in the filters, though there are many animal-free alternatives in use.
