Cocktails, anyone?

I am from Wisconsin, and boy, do we love our old-fashioneds here (some of you may not even know what they are). For those of you who know what they are, they are LADEN with calories.

I came up with a very light, refreshing version, because, after all - who wants to skip cocktail hour? )

This is less than 100 calories - 97 to be exact. And it is in a pint glass, which helps trick your brain even more!

1 oz. Kessler whiskey (or any brand you prefer)
2 maraschino cherries
1 slice of orange
Dashes Angostura bitters
Diet 7 Up

Using a muddler, mash the 2 cherries into a pint glass. Add the orange slice and mash. Add a few dashes of bitters. Fill the glass with ice. Add one ounce of whiskey, and fill the rest of the glass with diet 7 up.

Delicious, light and refreshing!
