I'm going on a trip to the mountains with my friends in a few weeks. What is a better choice ...beer,wine,hard liquor? What are your favorite low cal alcholic drinks?

    Depends, most vodka or whiskeys are around 110 cals for a standard 1.5 ounce shot, so mix that with diet soda, club soda, or one of tropicana's 50calorie juices and you have a drink for like 110-170.

    Light beer has 64-110 calories depending on the brand. Wine is 90 calories per 5 ounce glass. Be careful with gin and rum because sometimes they have a shocking number of calories.
  • I usually go with the bud select 55 or mgd 64 if I am wanting to drink beer.

    I have also recently discovered no cal margarita mix. Basically you are just drinking the calories of the tequila which isn't too bad
  • I've heard people talk about Coke Zero and clear rum, I think the rum is about 80 calories/ounce.

    i'm not a huge vodka fan, but heard the more clear the booze is, the better for you. who knows - maybe an old tale.
    vodka and club soda is a pretty low cal option - you could toss in some cranberry and or limes etc. Or if you splurge $$, grey goose is nice on the rocks.

    personally, I'm a fan of Crown Royal on ice. smooth and gets the job done :-) although I do love my beer....probably why I need to lose my gut :-)

    have fun

    My brother's roommate just suggested to me Flavored Seltzer (look for low cal) and gin. Haven't tried it but he says its great!
