    I really enjoy beer more than hard liquor. Guinness delivers a dark thick rich flavor with less calories than you would imagine. I also like Yuengling Light in the summer when a lighter beer is better.

    Guinness has lots of micronutrients, too. Mmmmm. B vitamins. It's health food.

    Guinness float - with vanilla ice cream! So much health.

    I usually opt for vodka with diet. I don't drink that often anymore but I've been wanting to drink Brandy lately. (Googling...) It's 64 cal/oz.
    So that's what I'd get cuz of my own cravings. Mixers are what will do ya in calorie-wise.

    My new go to is a big glass of soda water, 1 shot of tequila and a lime. It looks like I'm drinking a double, I drink it slower and I drink more fluids.

    Patron shots with salt and lime. Gets the job done for only 69 cal per oz (typical shot is 1.5 oz) so just have 2 shots to make the math easier!

    My go to is usually a grey goose dirty martini which is about 150 calories. It's definitely nice if you like olives and you want something to sip on. Other than that, I'm a big fan of the dark beers (Guinness) and wine. What I'm drinking all depends on the day I'm having for calories and exercise. I hope you have fun!

    I have started drinking vodka or fireball but I am not sure what the calorie count on any of them are I just thought it would probably be less calories than a Miller Light. I also like Di Serrano on the rocks but it might have a higher calorie count because it is a sugary liquor but I like it's really good.
