The slot on fitday for alcohol is meant for the stuff that gets you drunk in beer, wine, and liquor. For whatever reason, fitday doesn't have a slot for sugar like the nutrition label does.

Not always, I use "sugar free" syrup, that has sugar alcohol in it. I guess I didn't think about the other type since I quite drinking.
Sugar alcohols are supposed to be noncaloric, so it doesn't make sense that they would contribute to the calorie load on your FD pie chart. I'm pretty sure the FD slot for alcohol is for ethanol; if you back-calculate from the pie chart percentage you get for a peg of whiskey, it works out to about 7 calories per gram, which is about right for ethanol.
