Is coke gluten free?!


Question: I drank some Jack and coke this weekend (left over from New Years from my bf). Of course, this morning I woke up and got sick from it. So I'm sure it was the Jack Daniels even though I thought it was distilled. I was trying to find out online if Coke was too. I keep getting mixed answers. Some say yes and some say no. I'm not a big coke drinker, but I do miss the occasional whiskey and coke . I guess I should just stick to wine to stay safe.

According to the Coke site, Coke (and most other Coke products) are Gluten free.
HOWEVER, Jack Daniels is an alcohol that I avoid as a Celiac. Yes if alcohol is distilled its gltuen free, HOWEVER, I dont think that Jacks is completely distilled. I Think some coloring is often added after distillination that makes it no longer gluten free. Many Celiacs avoid whisky I know jsut to be safe.
Try this sites and see if it helps www.glutenfreedrinks.com. U can also try contacting the Jacks company via their website but dont expect a clear answer bc alcohol companies are not as obligated to give info on gluten as food comps are.
Good luck. Try a rum and coke instead! :)

i don't know what to tell you. Don't drink so much if your going to get sick

Coke should be fine, but grain alcohol is a nono, I'm afraid. If it was completely distilled to purity, it wouldn't have that nice taste that you miss so much.
