I love beer and wine, so I can't boot them out of my life. Any suggestions for the best buzz for the calories? Thanks!

    Tito's vodka and diet snapple iced tea works for me. 1 shot of Tito's is only 80 calories and my drinks last twice as long as beer or wine. If you can't get rid of beer, most are 100 - 150 calories per beer. Go for the flavor with a Rolling Rock @ 130 calories per 12 oz bottle. Wines, I would stick to reds over whites which tend to have more sugars.

    Tito's vodka and club soda with lime!
    Or Michelob Ultras. Those are my go to drinks.

    Thank you! I've been drinking nothing but the finest boxed wine (yes, sarcasm;) -Almaden's Moscato-which is 150 calories per 5 ounces and 13% alcohol by volume. Some of the great German wheat beers hover at 120-150 a bottle, but those are only about 6-7% alcohol by volume.

    So, it's definitely an endorsement for Tito's :)

    I do Malibu rum, soda, splash of pineapple. Tastes like a piña colada and is 90 calories.

    Another thought - you said you like beer and wine. Stick with the lights and ultras for beer, and cut your wine with club soda. I write down my meals ahead and always make sure I have room for my wine :)
