Mmmmmmm... Alcohol!

nicolabarratt267

So there's not way I could give up alcohol completely! I usually drink wine or lager but they're both high in calories. What do you drink on a night out?

vodka + seltzer + lemon wedge = delishhh :drinker:

Vicodin or Percocet and then a couple shots. Keeps the calories and sugar a lot lower! LMAO

Red wine is less calories than lager. I usually go for wine

I do love red but only drink it in the house. Not a fan of the stained lips and teeth.

Rage_Phish

bourbon, neat or on the rocks

Elsie_Brownraisin

Real ale or lager.

I do love a gin and tonic (not slimline!) too.

Yes, lots of the fally downy, but none of the calories! Probably cheaper too.

tequila shot! with salt and lime wedge

drink what you want in moderation. also, if you do your exercise, you'll have more than enough calories to spare

I drink a similar concoction - I usually go with vodka + soda water + several lime wedges & squeeze the lime juice into the drink. It really is good! I bet the lemon would be tasty, too. Haven't tried that yet. And when I feel like a beer, I really like the Michelob Ultra Lime Cactus, especially in the summer. I think it's 90 calories/can and yummy!

gin and grapefruit juice

or whiskey neat

Beer.
Wine.
Whisky.
Sometimes all three in the same night, but never in the same drink.

Captain & Diet Coke! 60-80 cals per serving. A lot less than 150 for a glass of wine or ~200 for lager.

Also, when mixing at home, you can pour one shot and virtually as much Diet Coke as you want (actually I use Coke Zero at home).

kattyisfat

Tequila, DIET Tonic water and lime....YUM! Especially refreshing after a long day!

When out I tend to go with whatever the guest hand pulled ales are. Joys of being in Yorkshire. At home, I'm a single malt collector, but tend to reserve that for tasting nights. I'll usually have some wine of an evening in.

Half a light beer. something under 100 calories.

Ok, that hurt to even write. I like to get one or two good craft beers, Its only about 200 calories a pop, so not so bad.
or, a flight of them..

timberowl

Also at some chain restaurants you can check out their (overpriced) "skinny" cocktails. Most have more calories than a Mich Ultra, but they'll help shake things up a bit to break the monotany.

Flavored Vodka and unsweet tea. The flavor of the vodka makes the tea slightly sweet and it's lower in calorie than beer.

phathousecat

The bar I frequent has cranberry ginger kombucha on tap.... So I drink kombucha and gin!

randomtai

Margaritas!!! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

ZaftigBetty

Bloody Mary's, Vodka + Diet Tonic, Tequila shots, Vodka + Sprite Zero. There's other alternatives. I mean Michelob is under 100 calories per bottle.

cmk9191

Bubbles like prosecco or dry brut are lower calorie too! They won't stain your teeth

Where in Yorkshire are you?

1 oz Firefly Tea Infused Vodka (66 calories) with 1 packet of Crystal Light Lemonade. Mix in large glass, add Ice & fill with cold water. Very yummy! Tastes like Ice Tea/Lemonade and very refreshing!

doughnutsndeadlifts

I don't drink.

But Skinnygirl makes low calorie vodka, wine, and ready-to-serve cocktails.

danwood2

My current poison of choice is Fireball Whiskey - Neat or On Rocks.

Another good staple for the Margarita fans is Tequila with Crystal Light Margarita Mix. Not bad for 70-something calories a glass

fuhrmeister

vodka tonics with lemon.

Or wine b/c I just love wine. I'll take a nice buttery chardonay please!

chaniebee

Usually Captain and Diet Coke.... diet soda has zero calories and gets you drunk faster (((:
