Is Rum Low Histamine?

No, rum is not low histamine. But while there is no truly low histamine alcohol, plain white rum is one of the least inflammatory alcohol options for histamine intolerance. This is because white rum is distilled from sugar cane grass and isn’t aged, so even though it contains alcohol and some histamine, it is the among the lowest histamine alcohol options on the market. But just like with any other food, the number of ingredients and the amount of processing matters. If you opt to drink rum with histamine intolerance, try to limit yourself to what your body can process (up to one ounce per hour), and only use low histamine mixers. These include fresh juices from low histamine fruits, plain seltzer water, and even pure vanilla extract.
