I need help getting creative with keto friendly grown up drinks. I am tired of vodka soda, or drinks on the rocks. Any other creative YUMMY low carb ideas for nights out with friends or a nice post work happy hour? Thanks guys!

    Well, you see, I love me a cocktail or two as well.......so sometimes I just have to accept the pay off is that I go over my carbs or I decide I will just have my carbs in cocktails, one very healthy decision!! Anyhow I usually only go places that mix their own drinks, that way I can get them to change things such as not adding sugar or honey. So a Mojito with no sugar syrup added, An Espresso Martini, no added sugar. Also most 'liquor' coffees so a shot of something, with the coffee and a cream topping. The website at livestrong.com has a fairly good section on the different carbs etc in various alcohols. Or just be that girl who drinks dry champagne! :D

    Rum and diet + lime wedge is my go-to

    I too usually either just booze on the rocks or mixed with seltzer. Dirty martini isn't too bad, and the olives are a nice extra treat. As stated above, the mojito without the simple syrup is on point too. A mexican restaurant I love has a "skinny margarita" on the menu, which is just tequila and lime juice. Still a little carby, but much less than the real thing.

    I like whiskey and coffee or diet soda.

    Vodka and blue koolaid made with splenda.

    Crystal Light used to make a Mojito and Margarita flavor that were pretty tasty, but I haven't used them in years, so not sure if they are still around.

    Nesfruta makes a low/no carb Pineapple Coconut water flavour drops - like Mio - Makes a decent tasting Pina colada - add some heavy cream if you like.
