Hi, My adult (married) daughter has been invited to a friends house for a "girls night out" on Thurs. They're making "Cosmo's made with vodka. Are there any brands of Vodka that are gluten-free? I thought I remembered some??? Thanks Jean :(

I know there are a number of potato vodkas - it'd depend on what you've got in stores near you. I like Ciroq, which is made from grapes, but pricey.

Chopin is made from potatoes, but is also expensive.

All vodka should be safe because it's distilled. Distilling removes the poisons.

But if you're still paranoid about that and don't want to pay ther high potato vodka prices, Smirnoff's is made from corn. All flavors are definitely gluten-free.

A triple distilled potato vodka found in many stores is the Polish vodka called LUKSUSPOWA. I don't trust any of the vodkas made from grain even though they are distilled. Potato vodka is a little more expensive than the grain vodkas.

But why wouldn't you trust a vodka made from corn?

I drink Smirnoff and have no troubles. I checked it about a year ago and it was gluten-free.

I guess I'm being over cautious because I get lesions on my throat if I make a mistake. However, i will try the corn vodka the next time. Thanks for making me think.

Thank you for all your suggestions. I gave them all to my daughter! I foolishly forgot I could go to the food list in this site and look up the info!! She went and they made sure to have a corn based Vodka and she had No problems. (Glad she could enjoy a well deserved evening visiting with her friends.) Thanks to you all!! Jean :D

Iceberg Vodka is the best vodka I've ever had. It is also derived from corn and cost more than Smirnoff but less than the other potato brands. But it is better to me than vodkas that cost twice the price. What would a girl do if she couldn't enjoy a cosmo now and then.. B)

Anyone know about flavored vodkas? My favorite is Stoli Vanilla and I haven't had it in months because I wasn't sure. I don't know if the distillation process would make any ingredients ok.

      Should not be a problem except for the most sensitive celiacs. The amount of gluten that would get in the air from cooking alone has got to be miniscule. I would be more concerned about cross contamination happening in other ways in a living environment where others are preparing and consuming gluten-containing foods. Thinks like shared cooking surfaces and countertops. And what about that toaster you mentioned?

      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure.  These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract.  Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop.  Ataxia is just one of over two hundred symptoms of Celiac Disease. Some people with Celiac Disease also make tTg IgA 6 antibodies in response to gluten exposure.  The tTg IgA 6 antibodies attack the brain, causing ataxia.  These tTg IgA 6 antibodies are also found in people with Parkinson's disease, though they may not have Celiac Disease.  First degree relatives (parents, siblings, children) of those diagnosed with Celiac should be tested as well.  Celiac is genetic.  Your mom and sister should be tested for Celiac, too!   Definitely a good idea to keep to a gluten free diet.

      @Rebeccaj,  When you smell toast or pasta cooking, that means that particles of that food are floating around in the air.  Airborne gluten can then be inhaled and swallowed, meaning the food particles get into your digestive tract.   If you're careful to avoid gluten and are still having symptoms, those symptoms could be caused by vitamin deficiencies.

      ok thanks for your advice. But my question was what happens when someone you know in a house is cooking pasta or toast that's flour  Airbourne without eating.?

      Do discuss this recent article with your doctors.  Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is important to intestinal health.  Thiamine deficiency can occur in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption.  Supplementing with a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and Vitamin D can help symptoms.   Thiamine deficiency aggravates experimental colitis in mice by promoting glycolytic reprogramming in macrophages https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39890689/#:~:text=Our mechanistic study revealed that,necessary to protect against colitis. "Conclusion and implications: Our study provides evidence linking thiamine deficiency with proinflammatory macrophage activation and colitis aggravation, suggesting that monitoring thiamine status and adjusting thiamine intake is necessary to protect against colitis."
