I am going out tonight to celebrate a friend's big birthday, and I don't want to blow all the hard work I've done w/ a bunch of high calorie drinks (and I will be having a few drinks). Anyone have any suggestions for some yummy low-cal adult beverages? :drinker:

    Try vodka with some flavoured water. Stay away from white wine. Enjoy!

    when I drink...(which is frequently!) I drink a cabernet which is about 90 calories...not the 120 as listed above, bud select 55 (yes I realize its the worst beer out there but its better than NO beer!) or vodka and club soda with a lime. The problem with everyone suggesting shots is you get drunk faster and then you lose judgement...all of a sudden Taco Bell and PBR sound like a great idea! :P
