One of the great side values of eating DrunkenRaisins is they’ll satisfy your sweet tooth in a healthy way. Eating 8 to 10 DrunkenRaisins after dinner is good for you whereas cookies and milk might not be. Furthermore, honey and cinnamon are touted for many healthy benefits. Just Google them!
It’s not suggested since heating one of our DrunkenRaisins will turn it into an ex-DrunkenRaisins, probably changing its benefits and certainly changing its flavor. However, no harm will come to you since the other DrunkenRaisins won’t tell.
There are between 256 and 290 raisins in a DrunkenRaisins pound. When you eat 10 a day, that 1 lb. will last you 4 weeks. Indulging in a few more will not be harmful. We encourage eating responsibly, of course. But that holds for everything.
Depends on the quantity you have. Since they are tastier at room temperature we suggest you leave them on the counter in a closed glass jar. They should last over 90 days on the counter and many more months in the refrigerator. If you try to freeze them… well, they just won’t. You’ll just crystalize the honey.
You can use a toothpick or some people enjoy using chopsticks to pop DrunkenRaisins into their mouths. Others put them on oatmeal or in cereal. They’re good on ice cream, on bread pudding, in a cream cheese spread on a bagel, in a celery stick or on toast. You can even stir them into your smoothie. Let us know when you find a new way to eat DrunkenRaisins, and we’ll post your ideas on this site!
Suggestions for average gin-soaked raisins range between 8 and 12 raisins a day. But because DrunkenRaisins are jumbo raisins we suggest that 8 to 10 a day should suffice. Since it’s a food regime, it takes a little time for your body to build up a balanced amount so we suggest eating 8 to 10 twice a day for the first 2 weeks. After that revert to the 8 to 10 a day plan.
Well, let’s see… gin-soaked…ummmm – Yes! You’ll taste honey and cinnamon and a little bit-o-raisin too.
No telling what some people will eat and what some people will like. (blue cheese, spinach and eggplant, for example) Our experience shows that teetotalers are less fond of the DrunkenRaisins flavor. However, if you’re a non-drinker and you find relief from your painful joints when you eat DrunkenRaisins, think of them like cod liver oil…yuck and yummy eat ’em quick and down the tummy! [Hint: if the gin flavor is too overpowering simply leave your DrunkenRaisins out in the open for a few days, and the small amount of alcohol will evaporate. Someone said “It makes them taste more like mincemeat pie.”]
Sounds like wishful thinking. Before you get anywhere near a ‘buzz’ you’ll probably have your head in the commode from eating too many raisins in one sitting!
You can get them on the Internet at that place where we met but alas you cannot get them in a store, off the floor or from a boar. Hurry, hurry and get them soon and when they come you’ll need a spoon. Yes you’ll like them in every way so you can buy another day. (inspired by Dr. Seuss and Green Eggs and Ham)
A slight flavor variation will happen due to the diet of the bee that visited what later became one of the DrunkenRaisins that ended up on your counter.
DrunkenRaisins are positioned as a simple, low-cost home remedy that many users report taking daily to help ease chronic arthritis pain and stiffness. They are made from common food ingredients rather than synthetic pharmaceuticals, so they offer an appealing option for people hoping to reduce reliance on costly prescription drugs and their potential side effects. While individual experiences are often positive, this approach has not been proven equivalent to standard medical therapies, so DrunkenRaisins are best viewed as a complementary strategy that may provide symptom relief and financial savings for some arthritis sufferer under medical supervision.

Honey is a nutrient-dense natural sweetener rich in flavonoids and polyphenols that exhibit meaningful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. Experimental and early clinical data show honey can downregulate key inflammatory pathways (including NF-κB and MAPK) and reduce pro-inflammatory cytokines, while supporting immune balance and tissue repair. When used alongside gin-soaked DrunkenRaisins, honey can act as a complementary matrix that adds its own polyphenol profile to the juniper, cinnamon, and golden raisin components, potentially enhancing overall antioxidant capacity and gentle anti-inflammatory support within a largely food-based, natural regimen.

Jumbo golden raisins provide a dense, natural package of potentially helpful compounds. The DrunkenRaisin aficionado considers them “the best all-natural anti-inflammatory food in the world.” They contain polyphenols, small amounts of vitamins, fiber, and sulfur dioxide–related compounds, all of which may contribute modest antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. In folk remedies like DrunkenRaisins, jumbo golden raisins act as the carrier for juniper-rich gin and adjunct spices, concentrating these ingredients into a convenient daily portion. The overall anti-inflammatory eFect is supported by thousands of anecdotal consumer comments, but has yet to be proven in a multimillion- dollar double-blind study.

Cinnamon from Sri Lanka, often called Ceylon or “true” cinnamon, contains potent polyphenols and cinnamaldehyde that help calm overactive inflammatory pathways. Studies show that Sri Lankan cinnamon extracts can reduce inflammatory signals, including nitric oxide, TNF-α, IL-6, and COX-2 activity, mechanisms closely tied to joint pain and arthritis. When this high-quality cinnamon is incorporated into the DrunkenRaisins process, it adds a layer of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory support on top of the juniper-rich gin and golden raisins.

Juniper berries used to make gin contain antioxidant and anti-inflammatory plant compounds that, in theory, help calm inflammatory pathways related to arthritis. When gin is used to soak jumbo golden raisins, you also get antioxidants and sulfur-related compounds from the raisins, while the actual amounts of active juniper and sulfur are small the benefit from this original folk remedy is no longer a rumor. Many people still enjoy a daily spoonful of these “drunken raisins,” and DrunkenRaisins has become a well-known resource for properly prepared gin-and-juniper–based raisin products for many who rely on this traditional approach.

DrunkenRaisins are a low-cost home remedy for arthritis pain, providing significant savings compared to expensive prescription drugs and helping avoid their serious side effects for many users
Honey’s anti-inflammatory benefits come from its antioxidants, polyphenols, and flavonoids, which reduce oxidative stress, inhibit inflammatory enzymes, and modulate cytokines—helping lower inflammation throughout the body and supporting heart, metabolic, and immune health
Jumbo Golden Raisins support heart, bone, and gut health, lower cholesterol and blood pressure, boost immunity, prevent anemia, and provide antioxidants to help prevent chronic disease and promote healthy aging.
Another powerhouse on the DrunkinRaisins team is our cinnamon (which is imported from Sri Lanka). Cinnamon is know to promote circulation, help maintain a healthy immune system, promote oral health, help alleviate sore muscles and joints while providing other internal health.
DrunkenRaisins helps many people feel less pain by combining several potentially helpful factors. Golden raisins contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory plant compounds, while gin made from juniper berries also contains substances that may modestly reduce inflammation. In addition, many users report that taking a small, consistent daily dose becomes a comforting ritual, which can enhance relaxation and amplify the anti-inflammation effects, both of which can lessen the perception of pain. Thousands of positive antidotal reports indicate valued results that will vary from person to person.
