I might suggest this drink! I found it in my "Health" magazine.

No Guilt Frangelini - almost zero sugar and 144 calories (109 fewer than most sweetened martinis)

Fill a glass with ice, add a shot of vanilla-flavored vodka, then fill the glass with club soda. Top with a splash of Frangelico. Enjoy!!

    total 117cal and just taste like double vodka Red Bull

    Sounds easy! This is one I’ve been wanting to try;

    Strawberry Colada

    ¾ cup Sprite Zero
    1 shot, 1.5 oz rum
    ½ packet crystal light strawberry drink mix
    4 frozen strawberries
    2 tbsp limejuice
    1 cup crushed ice or 5-8 ice cubes

    Directions: place all ingredients in a blender. Blend until uniform and slushy

    I got this stuff called "Skinny Mixers" at Bed, Bath & Beyond the other day. 0-5 calories per serving in the mix, all you have is the alcohol calories and they come in Cosmo, Appletini, Margarita, and more to come! Check it out! :drinker:

    I drink diet pepsi all day, but for some reason can't stomach diet ginger (with my Crown) or diet tonic.

    Really good!! I had the Cosmo one. Of course you still have a little bit of the "fake sugar" taste, but not nearly as bad as some things I've had. I want to try the Appletini one next. NO MARGARITAS for me though. Tequila...blech!! LOL!

    Bed Bath and Beyond withdrew from Canada so unfortunately I’ve never seen these skinny options.

    I’ve had a margarita mix (it’s a bucket, you add tequila) from Home Outfitters, it was awesome! It was also my first time drinking tequila on my bachelorette last year – good times, highly recommended ;)

    Walmart has these mixes as well usually in their summer section of junk (candy, plastic dishware, usually near the entrance) but I've never seen a low-cal one.

    It seems as though B,B & B is the only retailer, but you can buy them online!
