Anybody need a drink?

Thought I'd share my new favorite low-cal drink. Give it a try; even if you don't like gin, I swear it doesn't taste like alcohol but it does the trick!

6 oz. Sprite Zero
1 oz. Gin (I like Bombay Saphire)
Half a lime, squeezed
[Mix and drink over ice]

The whole thing is about 65 calories and I think it tastes better than skinny margaritas.
Safe drinking!

Sounds lovely, I'm a G&T girl myself sadly am out of Bombay Saphire (my personal favourite!) but gonna note this down for the weekend treat.

Oh well back to the water:drinker:

Sounds good, even if I am not a big fan of gin... can't beat that calorie count.

Sounds like something I'd give a try! Usually I think gin tastes like pine needles, but it's worth a shot.

I have another. A co-worker of mine who is in fantastic shape (trainer, fighter, runner and whatever else you can imagine) once suggested vodka water to me when I had a bachelorette party to attend, and I was looking to come out of the experience with the same shape that I went in with. I thought she was nuts (because straight up vodka is far from being a favourite of mine) but I thought I would start the night out low cal and see where it took me.

I swear, as long as this is made the way they do at a bar (TONS of ice, 1.5 ounces vodka, and a generous lime or lemon wedge) it will be your new go-to when watching your calories. It has become MY go-to regardless of calorie counting, as it is the only thing I can drink more then a couple of without getting a sugar headache or feeling dehydrated the next morning. The colder it is the better, and the more picky you are the bigger the glass should be!
