How many carbs does regular barcardi have??

Answer 1

If you're worried about carbs, you really shouldn't be drinking at all.

Even so, just allow yourself a day off.  Life is too short to constantly be counting carbs!

Answer 2

Assuming you are talking about regualr barcardi 80proof rum, the answer is none.  Nearly all the carbs/sugar have been converted to alcohol, and it does NOT convert back while in your body.

"In general, 5% to 10% of ingested alcohol is excreted unchanged in urine, sweat, and expired air. The remainder is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water at the rate of about 5 milliliters to 10 milliliters per hour in terms of pure alcohol."

You usually get carbs from adding the mixers to the drinks.  (Juice, regular sodas, etc.)  If you are adding Rum, Vodka, or other alcohols to sugar free/low sugar things, then you aren't getting many/any carbs.  

Note that this is different then drinking beer/wine.  These are low in alcohol content, so not all the sugar has been converted.
