Rum

What is everyone's favorite brand of rum? I know there are topics on here about this, but they were a few years old. I'm having some of my friends over and want to make mojiotos but I'm not sure what brand to buy. Doing a quick search on the internet the other day  it doesn't seem like any company comes out and actually says their rum is glutrn feee. I realize that rum is made from sugarcane and is naturally "supposed" to be gluten free, however  I do know that some brands will store their rum in used bourbon barrels. I still seem to be pretty sensitive to things (2 1/2 years into my celiac journey) and I just want to be thorough before I buy some.

Bacardi claimed gluten free at one time, it is a bit harsh but the safest bet, beware of anything flavored. I personally use admiral nelsons, and have had no issues with the coconut rum or the vanilla rum. I can not drink but I use it in cooking, goes great in stir fries caramelizing veggies and mixes with seasonings for marinades, I also use it in some baked goods and frozen treats like my pina colada frozen pie which is still a hit among others.

Bourbon is gluten-free,...but if you are worried about that, go with a mass marketed cheaper kind - probably made in metal containers.  Call or message a few and ask.

Fine you can have the recipe

Pina Colada Pie
1 Pie Crust (I suggest the gram cracker version of my gluten-free Pie Crust)
1 Can Full Fat coconut milk
1 20oz Can Crushed Pineapple in natural juice
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 tbsp maple syrup
dash of salt
If you want it a bit more stable I suggest adding 2tbsp of coconut oil

(Optional 1 shot of rum)

1. Place all ingredients but the crust in blender
2. Blend well.
3. Pour over crust and place in freezer for at least 4-8 hours for optimal texture, and cut. Note if frozen over night it sets up a little hard but is just as tasty and can be eaten like a pizza.

I like Bacardi. I tend to stay away from flavored rums but those could be gluten free also but you would want to check.

Boy that sounds good. Have to make a store run for coconut water and gluten-free gram crumbs. Do you drain the pineapple before blending?

It is full fat COCONUT MILK has to be the full fat cooking one like Thai Kitchen in the asian section. And no you do not drain it, make sure it is the 20oz can in Natural Juice not syrup you blend them all just dump them together in the blender.     As for the crust I have a recipe for a gluten free pie crust in the recipe section I think still that uses almond meal, coconut oil, cinnamon, stevia, and maple sryup to make your own gram cracker like crust. You will have some extra filling leftover....but I normally pour it in ice trays with tooth picks or a popcilce mold .....the filling has multiple frozen desert applications.....heck should even work great in a icecream machine for a sherbet, not tried yet.

Thanks. I may try it as Pina coladasicles. I recently saw a recipe for pops that had fruit frozen inside so I may give that a try with this by just reserving a few small chunks before blending.

When I saw the recipe, I thought I might try it in my ice cream maker!  Lol

      I'd be very cautious about accepting these claims without robust evidence.

If they are selling non-gluten-free in your store, I suggest talking to customer service to see if they can get you the gluten-free version (they are tasty) > This past week I bought "Sliced Raw Almonds, Baking Nuts, 5 lbs Item 1495072 Best if used by Jun-10-26 W-261-6-L1A 12:47" at Costco. The package has the standard warning that it was made on machinery that <may> have processed wheat. Based on that alone, I would not eat these. However, I contacted customer service and asked them "are Costco's Sliced Almonds gluten free?" Within a day I got this response:  "This is [xyz] with the Costco Member Service Resolutions Team. I am happy to let you know we got a reply back from our Kirkland Signature team. Here is their response:  This item does not have a risk of cross contamination with gluten, barley or rye." Based on this, I will eat them. Based on experience, I believe they will be fine. Sometimes, for other products, the answer has been "they really do have cross-contamination risk" (eg, Kirkland Signature Dry Roasted Macadamia Nuts, Salted, 1.5 lbs Item 1195303). When they give me that answer I return them for cash. You might reasonably ask, "Why would Costco use that label if they actually are safe?" I can't speak for Costco but I've worked in Corporate America and I've seen this kind of thing first hand and up close. (1) This kind of regulatory label represents risk/cost to the company. What if they are mistaken? In one direction, the cost is loss of maybe 1% of sales (if celiacs don't buy when they would have). In the other direction, the risk is reputational damage and open-ended litigation (bad reviews and celiacs suing them). Expect them to play it safe. (2) There is a team tasked with getting each product out to market quickly and cheaply, and there is also a committee tasked with reviewing the packaging before it is released. If the team chooses the simplest, safest, pre-approved label, this becomes a quick check box. On the other hand, if they choose something else, it has to be carefully scrutinized through a long process. It's more efficient for the team to say there <could> be risk. (3) There is probably some plug and play in production. Some lots of the very same product could be made in a safe facility while others are made in an unsafe facility. Uniform packaging (saying there is risk) for all packages regardless of gluten risk is easier, cheaper, and safer (for Costco). Everything I wrote here is about my Costco experience, but the principles will be true at other vendors, particularly if they have extensive quality control infrastructure. The first hurdle of gluten-free diet is to remove/replace all the labeled gluten ingredients. The second, more difficult hurdle is to remove/replace all the hidden gluten. Each of us have to assess gray zones and make judgement calls knowing there is a penalty for being wrong. One penalty would be getting glutened but the other penalty could be eating an unnecessarily boring or malnourishing diet.

      Thanks for the thoughtful reply and links, Wheatwacked. Definitely some food for thought.

And although it might seem reasonable to conclude it would work the same way in cows, that is not necessarily the case. Studies seem to indicate otherwise. Studies also indicate the amount of gliadin in human breast milk is miniscule and unlikely to cause reactions:  https://www.glutenfreewatchdog.org/news/gluten-peptides-in-human-breast-milk-implications-for-cows-milk/ I would also point out that Dr. Peter Osborne's doctorate is in chiropractic medicine, though he also has studied and, I believe, holds some sort of certifications in nutritional science. To put it plainly, he is considered by many qualified medical and nutritional professionals to be on the fringe of quackery. But he has a dedicated and rabid following, nonetheless.

      I'd be very cautious about accepting these claims without robust evidence. The hypothesis requires a chain of biologically unlikely events: Gluten/gliadin survives the cow's rumen and entire digestive system intact. It is then absorbed whole into the cow's bloodstream. It bypasses the cow's immune system and liver. It is then secreted, still intact and immunogenic, into the milk. The cow's digestive system is designed to break down proteins, not transfer them whole into milk. This is not a recognized pathway in veterinary science. The provided backup shifts from cow's milk to human breastmilk, which is a classic bait-and-switch. While the transfer of food proteins in human breastmilk is a valid area of study, it doesn't validate the initial claim about commercial dairy. The use of a Dr. Osborne video is a major red flag. His entire platform is based on the idea that all grains are toxic, a view that far exceeds the established science on Celiac Disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and a YouTube video from a known ideological source is not that evidence."

      Some backup to my statement about gluten and milk. Some background.  When my son was born in 1976 he was colicky from the beginning.  When he transitioned to formula it got really bad.  That's when we found the only pediactric gastroenterologist (in a population of 6 million that dealt with Celiac Disease (and he only had 14 patients with celiac disease), who dianosed by biopsy and started him on Nutramegen.  Recovery was quick. The portion of gluten that passes through to breastmilk is called gliadin. It is the component of gluten that causes celiac disease or gluten intolerance. What are the Effects of Gluten in Breastmilk? Gliaden, a component of gluten which is typically responsible for the intestinal reaction of gluten, DOES pass through breast milk.  This is because gliaden (as one of many food proteins) passes through the lining of your small intestine into your blood. Can gluten transmit through breast milk?
