I personally don't but know plenty who do. Alcohol is just fine and dandy for cooking but I just don't like the taste of the alcohol so that is why I don't drink it. However if you are looking for vegan alcohols list check out:

Also for some light reading on why some alcohol isn't vegan or vegetarian:

vegan because animals are not property



You should research the brand before drinking. Some alcohols, and some mixes for drinks are processed with/contain animal by-products. Google vegan alcohol, and I'm sure you'll find a list of drinks that are vegan.

I personally don't drink any alcohol, so I don't have to worry about it. No type of alcohol is particularly healthy for you, and even if they do have a health benefit of some kind, it's always overshadowed by the negative effects. If you already have enough self control not to eat any animal products at all, why can't you channel that and just not drink? No good comes of alcohol (and no, I'm not religious, just don't like putting toxic things in my body).

Vegetarian for 12 years



As far as I know, they/we can but there have been a few vegans say a select few beers are not vegetarian.
The malt beers are made of malt, but that is not a milk product.
Kaluha more than likely has milk chocolate in it.

Pina Coladas should be vegan since it is of cocoanut milk; not dairy.

I'm a vegan who doesn't drink so IDK.



It all depends.

Some beer and wine are filtered through isinglass, a substance obtained from the dried swim bladders of fish. It is a form of collagen used mainly for the clarification of wine and beer.

I am not vegan so I am not up on which brands do this.

A few popular brands of vodka are vegan. Grey Goose (lol), and Absolute.

Here is a website that lists

Add-
Yay, my favorite beer is vegan friendly.



You should come see me on Saturday nights. I'm a hilarious drunk.

But yes, if the vegan in question is not opposed to alcohol, and the alcohol is vegan, yes.

A fun vegan

vegan :D



I'm vegan and I don't drink alcohol. My husband is vegan and he does. There's a good answer above helping you determine which alcoholic drinks are and are not vegan.



If you live in the uk and are looking for vegan alcohol go to sainsbury's most of the drink especially the wine tells you if its vegan or vegetarian



Yes, some vegans do drink alcohol. Yet I don't drink because i don't see the need of it.

Vegan



I'm a vegan, I drink. I am drinking right now as a matter of fact. Drink away.



I don't. I've been straight edge since last century.

I hate paying tax



is not a human being an animal,if you drink and drive might you kill an animal?



I don't believe it harms animals. And wines are made of grapes sooo...



yes, my sister was vegan for about 15 years and did plenty of drinking.



This vegan does.



Yes they do. Many of them claim they are so healthy by not eating meat, but then poison their bodies with excessive amounts of alcohol and sometimes illicit narcotics such as marijuana, cocaine, acid, and shrooms.



Depends on the type of vegan. Most don't because alcohol is processed using an ingredient called ''isinglass" which comes from fish.



yes because being a vegan means you dont eat animals or any animal products. As long as the drink has no alcohol then its fine to them.



i dont think they do, if they did it would be very hypocritical on their beliefs
