Lowest Carb Whiskey Drinks

205 whiskey drinks tracked, averaging 0.5g carbs and 109 calories per serving. Distillation removes essentially all of the sugar from the fermented mash, so whiskey carries almost no carbs - what calories it has come almost entirely from the alcohol itself, which is also why the category scores near the top. Sorted by carbs per 1.5 oz serving (lowest first), then score.
