Your feedback

The Rob Roy is a Scotch whisky and sweet vermouth cocktail with low purines but alcohol content that requires caution for gout.

Added by vblinden

Good
  • Distilled spirits like the Scotch base contain negligible purines and studies suggest moderate whisky intake may not raise uric acid levels and could even aid its excretion.
Bad
  • Any alcohol, including in cocktails, can impair uric acid excretion by the kidneys, promote dehydration, and increase flare risk despite lower risk than beer.
