So this may seem like a silly question but I gained a lot of weight last year when I turned 21 and was drinking beer and hard cider a lot more and have lost the weight since I don't drink much anymore and am wondering what drinks I can drink that would have similar effects and make me gain the weight back and do you think it was just the high calorie content in the alcohol that made me gain weight quicker?

Yes. Most of the calories are carbs/sugars.
