What's your go-to alcoholic drink of choice? I'm going out tonight and I'm tired of the same old things. I'm not having a lot, but calories can certainly add up. I'm tired of beer and don't do tequila. What should I drink?

    Moscato if wine, fireball if shots and key lime pie if a mixed drink.

    ETA- I don't know that any of them are low cal. I don't do artificial sweeteners.

    Seconded regarding vodka, especially infused vodka with flavored seltzer water. Also, saki is only 54 calories/ounce.

    You could prob do a low cal Key lime pie. It's just whipped vodka, Ginger Ale and some lime/lime juice. So you could ask for diet Ginger Ale.
  • Vodka cranberry w/ a splash of Sprite.

    Most bars offer skinny margaritas nowadays.

    Jameson & Diet Coke.

    Sugar free redull & vodka.

    Long Island.

    Light beers- Stella, blue moon, shock top (or, coors/bud light)

    Moscow Mule.

    Old fashioned.

    Anything that's not blended or made of mixers really.

    Hard liquor is best for calorie conscienceness.
    I like wine so I get wine. Saugmvignon blanc or Cabernet tonight. Might as well indulge once in awhile.

    But if you want to save calories....maybe rum and diet coke?
