I bought some alcohol free kopperberg cider I have had half a bottle and now have seen it says 0.05% alcohol. Is it ok to drink? Should I leave it until I see my midwife and ask her?
I've drank a full bottle, honestly that percentage won't do a thing, it is safe to be drank during breastfeeding (which I am) but I'm early pregnancy too (bit of a surprise)
That's a legal thing on the bottle, technically lots of fruit and veg go over the limit for labelling "An overripe banana can contain 1% alcohol and malt vinegar that you put on your chips is 0.2% abv. Alcohol"
You would need drink around 45 glasses of alcohol free wine to reach 1 unit! so you're perfectly safe to drink as much as you want.
You'll get more alcohol than that by eating anything with vanilla extract in it. I wouldn't worry about that at all. I also put wine in my spaghetti sauce.
