vodka with diet soda is about the lowest, i believe vodka is 69 calories/oz.
personally, i dont worry about it. but i drink so infrequently that i just use it as my cheat day and call it good.

I get by on Malibu or other rum with Coke Zero.

Liquor mixed w/ diet soda is about as low-cal as it's gonna get...I like Captain Morgan & Diet Coke, or vodka and Diet Sprite. Each shot is about 60 cals so they add up if you're not careful. Also, making a spritzer with wine was suggested to me...half white wine, half Diet Sprite. But I still like straight-up wine better. It sucks when you like drinking but are trying to lose weight!

Most hard alcohol is pretty low calorie, as long as you mix it with something without a ton of sugar. Flavored vodkas and sprite zero, gin and tonic, rum and diet, etc.

vodka and diet anything is aroung 64 calories 1oz vodka plus diet soda.

or you can do vodka soda plus limes for about 70 calories a drink.

Miller lite is 96 calories per 12 oz bottle,

MGD 64 (beer), wine spritzer ( 1/2 wine 1/2 seltzer water which is zero calories), skinny girl brand drinks, REAL margaritas as in lime juice and tequila not a mix,
at home- blend frozen strawberries in a blender, add in some tequila and a lime juice, a little water to thing, BAM very low cal and decently healthy ( due to the berries) frozen strawberry-rita

My favortite is UV Blue and light lemonade. According the the database, a tall glass has 84 calories!

I like vodka with diet cranberry juice and a squeeze of lime. You could even add a tiny splash of OJ.

The skinny girl brand is great. I also like to mix with Crystal light

Water!

My most recent favorite is sweet tea vodka. They even have some flavors like peach. Its really good mixed with water (pleasantly surprised) or an iced tea (Gold Peak has a great diet iced tea, Miu has a zero calorie sweet team flavor or just unsweetened iced tea w/some Splenda) or a diet lemonade!

I like vodka and flavoured water
low cal no sugar plus hydration...its an all around win!!!!

Club soda! Flavored vodka and club (or plain vodka with a lime). Cheap red or white wine with club soda.

I've been wanting to try them, but I was worried they would have that icky fake sweetener taste. Do they taste legit, or "diet"?

Oh, and 6oz of red wine is 125 cals, but a glass a day is good for your heart. I always save my last few cals of the day for a sneaky sip.

shot of vodka and any V8 diet fruit drink(10 cal for the V8)-approx 80 cal per drink.

Personally, I did not like the skinny girl margarita but might give them another try. Jose quervo light margarita is yummy and only 100 calories per serving! For some reason, I definitely got a quicker buzz with the light version. Maybe that's because there's a lot less sugar. Also, crystal light now has a margarita flavor! I have tried it in water(not too bad, definitely smells like a margarita) but I bought it with the intent to use this summer as my go to drink without all the extra calories. They do not sell them in individual packets for bottled water but they come in a plastic container with 5 larger packets that you add to 2 quarts of water. For an alcoholic beverage, just add your favorite tequila (mine is sauza silver, only 68 calories per serving) plus one serving of crystal light 5 calories, this give you a low cal margarita of only 73 calories! Like I said, I've yet to try with tequila, but hope it's doable!

I like Cherry Jack Rum (83 calories for 1.5 oz) with Diet Dr. Pepper, tastes great!

I usually have a Raspberry Vodka with Soda water and a twist of lime. Calories: 64, Fat: 0g, Carbs: 8g for about a 3 oz drink

A great drink is Vodka mixed with flavored seltzer water.....if you get flavored vodka it makes it that much tastier too If you add some lime/lemon....squeeze it in cuz its a diuretic and helps you to lose water weight Good luck!

I'm a firm believer in plain vodka, club soda, with whatever fruit I have handy (lime, lemon, orange, etc). Used to drink microbrew beers often. Since I gave them up and switched 3 weeks ago, already lost 4 lbs! Can't believe some of those beers had almost 250 calories a piece. BTW higher proof liquor normally = higher calories. Also lighter hard liquor = lower calories. Just a thought if you are mixing with diet soda!
