Low calorie fruity *alcoholic* beverage

Okay, so it isn't healthy by any means, but it IS low calorie. I'm all about health but once a week I enjoy going out with my friends and having a few drinks (I'm in college, what do you expect?)
So I've discovered a way to do this without totally screwing over my calorie count for the day.
Here's the trick:
- Buy a bottle of Sprite Zero from the convenience store and sneak it into the bar
OR
- Order a glass of Diet Sprite (or Sprite Zero if your bar of choice serves it)
then
- Add a few drops of your favorite MIO flavoring (I personally like Berry Pomegranate or Fruit Punch)
and finally,
- Add a shot of Bacardi!
Total calories in this cocktail: 60 - 65 (depending on whether or not you opt for the flavored Bacardi)
This concoction would actually work with vodka or gin, maybe even tequila. But those tend to be a bit more calorie heavy.
Happy drinking!!
