I usually stay with the "clear" liquors.
I like vodka so I drink pretty much all of them. Some people are still sensitive to ones made from grain, so they usually drink Smirnoff (made from corn) or potato vodkas (chopin, blue ice, glacier bay, llelowosa).
Get a screwdriver or cape cod (vodka cranberry) or vodka tonic or vodka-seven or whatever mixer you like with vodka.

Rum, tequila, and potato vodka are not made with grains that have gluten, so they are okay. Theoretically, the distillation process removes the gluten, but some of us still have a reaction to liquors made with those grains.
Be careful of margaritas if you're casein free -- the bar across the street from my house has a mix they use that has milk solids in it. I know Cointreau is gluten-free, so I request that be used in my margarita if I order one out or make them at home (I use Jose Cuervo mix).

I usually drink the clear ones, too. I just don't want to chance a reaction to whatever the use to color it since many are made in other countries.
Didn't know that about Smirnoff, but vodka rips me up anyway ... don't know why, I tried Chopin. It's unfortunate, too, because I love cosmopolitans!

I'm 24 and a bartender, and was just diagnosed a little over a week ago. Everytime a regular offered to buy me a shot, I just cringed - especially that first nite before I'd done more research. (Not many people are up for straight vodka...)
Does anyone know about Jameson? It's a malt whiskey (their website was under construction when I checked earlier this week, so they didn't even have a contact button) I don't understand the whole distillation process and how many times it should go through said process before it's considered okay.
Also, I've read a lot that vodka is okay in general. I've seen Smirnoff mentioned specifically quite often, but never Stoli or Absolut. Are those no-nos, or is it because the vodka market is overly saturated and it would be ridiculous to list every brand?

Went six weeks, and fell back into a deliciously painful world of cheese.
Casein-free (again and for serious this time) December 11, 2006

Originally from WI, I am still in denial over my newfound casein intolerance. I fear I will not be allowed back into the state if I can no longer eat cheese and drink milk. This could pose some trouble over holidays when I wish to visit my family. It also poses a problem involving the severe rage I feel when I have to throw away somebody's unfinished cheese sticks. That is so wrong.

Stoli and Absolut are both distilled from wheat. So, for those of us who are on the "distillation does render it gluten free" side of the camp, we're going to say they're safe. Ironically, I'm in that camp, but would steer you towards Ciroq, which is grape based so couldn't have gluten in it, merely because it's much better than even Stolichnaya, though not available in flavors. Some people have reactions to some alcoholic beverages regardless of gluten status, of course, so always listen to your body.
