Okay guys, It's Freshers week at University and I'm going to be drinking. What is the best alcoholic drink for dieters? I've been on the Malibu and Diet Coke (Can't do vodka), but is there anything I'm missing? Any help would be appreciated and soon 'cause i'm going out in like half an hour!

    Pick one good beer you like and nurse one. Drink one or two glasses of wine. Anything and seltzer water or Diet Coke as a mixer.

    So possibly pints but drink them slowly? Problem with Diet Coke and something else is the fact that i always drink it so quickly!

    or if you have the ability to do Seagrams 7... then a diet sprite (or diet 7up) and that...or something similar is an american blended whiskey...so anything like that...they are super good and easy to drink with a twist of lime...sorry for the double post;)

    Flavored vodka and unsweet tea. The flavored vodka gives the tea a hint of sweetness, but not overly so. You're looking at 65-80 calories per drink. Added bonus, you don't get a hangover since you are constantly replenishing your system with "water". My favorite right now is strawberry vodka or watermelon vodka.

    Since you can't do vodka I think your plan of Malibu and Diet coke is good. Some people like Gin and soda water, but I am not a Gin fan, but you might like it. Have fun and be safe!

    why can't you have a diet coke and pretend there is alcohol in it. You don't HAVE to drink just because everyone else is.

    Sheesh. It's freshers. You only get to do this once (at least as a fresher). Loosen up and have fun. No one will want to talk to you if obsess over your calories and macros at the bar, and from that point on you will be known as "That crazy girl who was counting calories at freshers". Is that how you want to be known throughout your university career?

    Second that suggestion. For best bang 4 buck, evercleare (or lab grade ethanol) and diet whatever. Highest drunk to calorie ratio available.
