How Much Gordon's Pink Gin Can I Drink On SW?

At 8.5 syns for a can, you can have up to two cans of Gordon's pink gin on the slimming world plan. This can get its high syn value from the tonic water which is high in sugar.

For the gin itself, you will use 3 syns for a single shot, you can have up to five single shots of Gordon's pink gin on slimming world or two double shots before using all of your 15 syn daily allowance, making it a good low syn alcohol choice to have in moderation.

To keep syns low when drinking this pink gin we suggest mixing it with low syn mixers such as slimline tonic and diet lemonade, normal tonic can add 2-3 syns to the drink due to the sugar content. We also suggest measuring out your shots properly to avoid over-pouring the alcohol.
