    Good luck! Most low cal mixed drinks are neither sweet nor fruity since you need fruit juice to really mix them with and it's full of calories. I like sweet/fruity/strong drinks myself but have yet to find a low calorie version. Mostly stick to rum and diet coke or flavored vodka and seltzer water. If you find a low cal good sweet drink, please share!

    I usually tend to use vodka or tequila with some calorie free carbonated water drink such as sparkling ice. I actually love a good shot of white rum with cranberry sparkling ICE.

    Some whiskey will have notes of cherry; mix that with water croutons and you're good to go.

    Lol... I didn't just Google "water croutons"... :D

    I'm with you! The best I've figured out so far is rum or vodka and diet soda.

    Malibu rum has about 51 calories per ounce so if you mix it with Diet Coke or Ice Sparkling Water (I like to mix it with the orange mango or coconut pineapple flavors), is not too terrible. Tito's vodka, club soda and lime isn't too bad either.
