I am not spending the last hours of 2012 sober - No matter how badly i want to be slim, but if i knew more of the lower calorie drinks - i would stick to them Lol :)

Anybody have any suggestions?

    Vodka and club soda with lime is my go to cocktail. You could add a splash of cranberry if you'd like. Or the quintessential NYE drink, champage is a decent low cal option. Really, most alcohol is the same calorie wise, it's the mixers that can really add up.

    Happy New Years to you all :)

    Just go with average tasting low cal beer like Miller Lite, Bud Light or Mich Ultra.

    If you're looking to get a mixed drink involving some kind of juice... good luck trying to keep those calories down.



    Or.... make a premade mixture of Welch's Light Grape juice and Amsterdam Vodka and take it to the bar with you. That juice is only like 45 calories per serving and I think a single shot of vodka is like 100 calories or so.

    Champagne & wine for me! 120 calories per 5 oz serving, which is pretty small compared to the size of my wine glasses. If you prefer liquor stick with club soda or diet whatever as a mixer.

    Rum and diet cola. Or if you want more bang for your buck, try a Southern Suicide cocktail-obviously with sugar free items.

    Vodka, Perrier, lemon juice and lots of ice. I drink one of these and follow it up with one without the vodka... do it all night long and it'll feel like you're drinking all night and you'll only consume half the calories! Also, it helps with the hangover because you've had lots of water to keep hydrated :)

    You''re celebrating....why not just work it off on the dance floor?

    Vodka tonic is the best lowest cal intoxicating drink available.

    Not true. Tonic has approx 120 calories per 12 oz. Use seltzer or club soda at 0 calories.
