Does anyone know if Grand Marnier is gluten-free? Or does anyone just order a margarita & assume it is gluten-free or do you have to always ask the ingredients of a margarita? Not that I will ever find a babysitter to go have one just dreaming here but if I do I want to be prepared.

Believe me margaritas are okay!!!!! Unless you're allergic to corn products. But Grand marnier and tequila are gluten-free!!! Not everything has been taken away from us!

You have to be careful with some of the margarita mixes that they use. If they make the margarita from scratch, it's safe.

On the Grand Marnier message board:

Re: Gluten-free?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello Amy and welcome to our board

You can rest assured that Grand Marnier is certified Gluten free therefore it is totally safe to drink for Celiacs like yourself.

Best regards,

Why does Grand Marnier need a message board? :huh: That message was left by the administrator.

Grand Marnier is definitely gluten-free. I can't comment on margaritas - I never was into them and have not investigated them. The tequila is safe, but I don't know about the other ingredients.

As the margarita queen of my soccer team

(I bring 'em * they drink'em):

I have found that you have to be careful of which

mix is used. I have also reacted to "a shot" of

tequila - it didn't taste like the brand I ordered

but I definitely knew it was that (I brought my

own food). I have been told that the cheaper

brands are sometimes "cut down" at the bar

- lord knows with what.

And I always ask for the glass to be washed out.

I learned that if there is lots of flour "in the air"

it can stick to the glasses unbeknownst to us.

So to be on the safe side, drinking an all agave

tequila is the way to go especially if you have

any other food tolerances or allergies. Inquire

as to the mix, it will make a difference. And if

you order it "on the rocks" it won't come from

one of those machines which may have almost

any kind of mixture in it.

As for the Grand Marnier - I personally didn't

do to well with it for some reason so I basically

make my own with Triple Sec.

just my 2 tequila cents.... ;)

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      I agree with @trents, but thank you for bringing this up here!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By Jane02 · Posted

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.
