Gimlet

With moderation

A classic cocktail of gin, lime juice, and simple syrup with low purines but notable alcohol and sugar content that can raise gout flare risk.

Good

Lime juice provides some vitamin C, which may offer minor uric acid benefits in small amounts.

Bad

Alcohol from gin increases uric acid production and reduces excretion while simple syrup adds sugars that further elevate levels, making it risky in more than occasional small servings.
