About Seven and seven
The Seven and Seven is a popular cocktail originating in the United States during the 20th century. It combines two simple ingredients: Seagram's 7 Crown whiskey and 7UP, a lemon-lime-flavored soda. While it embodies classic American bar culture, its nutritional content is not typically robust, as it primarily consists of alcohol and sugar from the soda. One serving (8-10 oz) can contain approximately 150-200 calories, depending on the proportions used, with little to no beneficial nutrients such as fiber, protein, or vitamins.
Health Benefits
- Provides a quick energy source due to its sugar content (simple carbohydrates in 7UP).
- May momentarily elevate mood or relaxation due to moderate alcohol consumption, although benefits are minimal and temporary.
- Can contribute to social bonding and potential stress relief in social settings.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Always store Seagram's 7 Crown whiskey in a cool, dark place, and refrigerate 7UP after opening to maintain carbonation.
Common Questions About Seven and seven Nutrition
What is the nutritional content of a Seven and Seven cocktail?
A standard Seven and Seven cocktail (7 ounces of soda and 1.5 ounces of Seagram's 7 Crown whiskey) contains about 135-150 calories, 0 grams of protein, 0 grams of fat, and roughly 12-15 grams of carbohydrates from the soda, depending on the type of 7-Up used. It does not provide any significant vitamins or minerals.
Is a Seven and Seven compatible with a keto or low-carb diet?
A Seven and Seven is not keto or low-carb friendly due to the sugar content in the 7-Up or lemon-lime soda, which contributes around 12-15 grams of carbohydrates per serving. Opting for a sugar-free soda alternative could make it more suitable for low-carb diets.
Are there any health concerns associated with drinking a Seven and Seven?
The primary health concerns with a Seven and Seven involve its alcohol content and sugar levels. Regular consumption could contribute to weight gain and increase the risk of long-term health issues such as liver damage or heart disease. Consuming this drink in moderation is advised, according to CDC guidelines of up to 1 drink per day for women and 2 for men.
What is the recommended serving size for a Seven and Seven cocktail?
A traditional serving size for a Seven and Seven is approximately 8.5 ounces, combining 1.5 ounces of whiskey with 7 ounces of soda. For a lighter drink, you could reduce the amount of whiskey or replace regular 7-Up with a diet or sugar-free version.
How does a Seven and Seven compare to similar mixed drinks?
A Seven and Seven is comparable to other simple mixed drinks like a Whiskey Cola or Gin and Tonic in terms of calories (around 135-150 per serving). However, its flavor profile is lighter and more citrusy due to the lemon-lime soda. To reduce calories, using a diet soda alternative would align it closely with sugar-free mixers often used in similar cocktails.
