    Depends what you like!

    We've been juicing fresh limes & lemons and mixing with tequila and blended ice -- so good! Almost like a marg, but less sweet. You might need a bit of honey at the beginning to get used to the sour. I think it'd work with vodka or gin.

    My go to (when I don't want to drink a lot) is fizzy water with lots of ice and lime and the alcohol of your choice (usually vodka for me).

    Diet tonic water
    Sodas that use very little sugar, such as Dry sodas (I love the cucumber with some gin, only 45 calories of pure sugar cane per 12 oz bottle).
    You can even buy these online http://www.drysoda.com/drink-dry-soda.php (I don't work for them I just really like them.)

    When I'm out and watching my calories, I always go for a Gin & Tonic. Light bubbly and refreshing!
