The Proper Libation: Is Your Alcoholic Beverage Ethically Correct?


Greetings Veganistos!
Many alcoholic beverage makers routinely add a myriad of things into their products that no self-respecting vegan could ever consider drinking.
Things like dairy products and honey are often added directly or might be included in the filtration and processing.
According to Barnivore.com
"When filtering the drinks prior to bottling, companies can use things like isinglass (from fish bladder,) gelatin, egg whites, and sea shells, among other things.

These products grab onto the impurities and make it easier to catch them in the filters, though there are many animal-free alternatives in use."
I know it could seem like a daunting task to determine what's fit for consumption. Don't worry, it's all sorted out for you at barnivore.
