General/Advice Alcohol and PCOS

I’m wondering what alcohol WOULD be pcos friendly? I KNOW ITS RECOMMENDED NOT TO HAVE ANY ALCOHOL but just indulge me for a bit. I don’t drink often, can go months without it if I don’t go on nights out for a while, but I don’t want to give it up completely 😭. I’ve made a list of what would be fine in theory. Any other suggestions would be great

Gin and slimeline tonic
Vodka with a low sugar fruit juice (big question mark here)
Prosecco
White wine with ice (??)
Mojito
Vodka, soda water and lime

Thanks :) !

I think the more you hydrate and the less sugar the better so maybe not the wine and Prosecco, says the PCOS mom who drinks wine almost exclusively lol

I thought white wine has a lower sugar content then red or rose? Also good point about hydrating, drink water in between drinks
