Better-for-you Alcoholic Drinks

I'm going out tonight to celebrate a friend's birthday. There will be drinking and I don't want to feel like I'm sticking out like a sore thumb for not drinking. But I don't want to undo all my hard work in the gym (and in the kitchen) with one or two drinks at a party....

So, I'm looking for some low-calorie alternatives. Any suggestions??

    I just tried Crystal Light margarita - added to ice water and some tequila - really good for about 75 calories, no carbs! I'm sure you could order water with shot of tequila, bring the packets with you :)

    Vodka and Soda Water.

    A few drinks wont mess up your work though.

    If you're literally going to have just one or two, then you might as well stick to whatever you really enjoy (although obviously certain things like cocktails can be particularly calorific). If you're drinking for the buzz, and are not really bothered about the taste, then spirit + low calorie mixer tends to be your best bet, calorie-wise.
