Hi and Welcome to CAD,

When you say White Spirits, I am assuming you are talking about alcohol? If I am wrong, please let me know. If I am right, the answer is No, you can't have this outside of your RM. In fact just drinking diet drinks outside of your RM can be a problem for a lot of people. They recommend saving them for your RM, but everyone is different and you might be able to with no problem, the diet drinks that is, not the white spirts, that is a definite No..

I hope this helps.

Alcohol is RM only... and most of us find diet drinks should be kept to our reward meals as well, but you will have to figure that one out for yourself

Thank you for quick replies and good advice. I have previoulsy tried the Atkins Diet and you are allowed to drink white spirit alcohol as it contains no carbs but I understand why it would induce cravings.
