I love beer but while we were in the Dominican Republic they didn't have any that were really great. They had Brahma that I loved but the resort seemed to run out of it everyday. I guess everyone else liked it too! One of the bar tenders made me a really great refreshing drink that I fell in love with. It's called a Capirinha and it is the national drink of Brazil. Simple to make, light and tastes great! It's easy to cut the calories with it too.
2 oz Cachaca rum or any white rum. (Cachaca rum is made from sugar can and tastes better than regular rum.)
Simple syrup made from turbinato sugar (or a simple made from splenda to cut calories!)
Half a lime quatered and muddled in the bottom of a glass
Seltzer water
Ice
Muddle lime with 2 tsp sugar/splenda in the bottom of a glass
Add ice
Add simple syrup- as much or as little as you like depending on your tastes
Add rum
Add seltzer water
1 ounce of cachaca rum has 64 calories and a ton of kick!
Enjoy!0 -
I love craft beer! One of the reasons I exercise every day is so I can indulge my habit without guilt or remorse. A day without beer just kind of sucks.0

It's either 2-3 oz of scotch, whiskey, vodka, or rum (notice the or) in a coke zero. Two or three of those and I am good to go. For beer, it's only stouts, but two of them usually does the trick.0

You consider 68 calories to be a lot?
PER OUNCE. You have 5 oz, you just ate a meal....0 -

For a single oz? yeah. I mean...if I'm going to have scotch, I usually have a tumbler (half full) and sip it during the evening..1 oz is really not much.0 -
Bourbon! A glass of that on the rocks... mmmm. And calorie wise, not awful! I'll take a red wine or beer too. I often use booze to make up calories at the end of the day!0

I know-I'm heading home to Missoula, MT next week...we have SO many local amazing breweries out there...namely Kettlehouse...and they make my favorite beer called "Cold Smoke". It's incredible but I really gotta watch how much I have. Rats0 -
Yup, if it makes you drunk it makes you fat. If you want a weight loss buzz, you will have to stick with crank.0

Yeah..that's the disappointing thing. I mean...Scotch is not a shot-it's a sipper. You take a few sips of 1 oz and it's gone...
I mean-you get me around a bottle of single malt of Mccallum's and it's dangerous.0 -
I drink (and am drinking) red by the vat and am making great progress in the fat loss stakes.
The other aspects of my life have turned to #@%! but hey, I look fit
Love this..Funny guy!:drinker:
It would be funnier if it wasn't true
Seriously, getting regularly sloshed while dropping fat is a kind of pet project of mine.
I should do a DVD
I would buy this DVD :drinker:
Seriously, though, yesterday I was way under on both calories and my carbs goal... so I had a can of coke zero and some Malibu Black after dinner. It was delicious.
If it fits in your calories and macros, I don't see a problem (same goes for red wine and dark chocolate - two of my absolute favorite foods ever).0 -

I have friends like that, I call them 'can-orexic' ;D (They are beer drinkers, but I'll come up with something clever for wine soon! Any ideas?)0 -
Nothing! I've stopped drinking. I wasn't a big drinker to begin with, but I even skipped the drinks on 4th of July. Kind of a big deal.
My problem isn't the calories in vodka.. It's all the juice I like to have with it. Bleh.0 -

LoL no. It's a treat. Once every few weeks or something.0 -
It's the mixers that get you, really. A good dry martini is worth the calories!0

My stepmother calls it "alco-rexia" -- she'll forego her lunch to have two glasses of wine after work. >.<0 -

It's true. Pina Colada is one of my favorites...I now avoid it like the plague. Holy Hannah!
Also like amaretto sours (bring on the old lady jokes) but the sour mix has so many calories in it. Suck fest0 -
I suspect I have done my spirit limit ...
There's LIMIT??? Thanks for wrecking my whole day.0 -
Without beer and wine I'd be a size 4! Hmmmm.......0

Bacardi and caffeine free diet Coke. When I've had enough for the day, I don't want caffeine keeping me from my well earned pass out.0
