Hi guys! Im meeting up with some people at a bar later and do not want to overdo it. That being said, what are your favorite low cal bar drinks?

Thanks!

    I usually get wine and a glass of water between each glass. Not exactly super low calorie, but better than a fruity mixed drink I used to go for

    Anything mixed with diet soda. I just try to milk my drinks so they last longer. and every other drink is plain water so i stay hydrated.

    Diet and whiskey. Or vodka and water with lemon and lime. Once you get used to it, it's actually quite good.

    I used to do this until I looked up what kind of calories tonic actually contains...it's a crap ton.
    Now I do Tanqueray and Seltzer water, almost the same, much lower calories. That's about 75 calories for a single, 150 calories for a double. Even if you go crazy, it's unlikely you'll get more than 500 calories from the drinks. Just stay away from the pizza afterwards!

    Whisky. Tastes great on it's own and you can't get lower calories.

    Vodka water with lime...ask for a couple extra lime wedges if you want more flavour

    I think vodka/seltzer (soda water/aka club soda, NOT tonic, two different animals!) add a slice of lemon or lime. I love wine, and a bar serving is bound to be smaller than what you would pour at home. I find that beer fills me up too quickly now, so after 1 or 2 I would feel uncomfortably bloated.

    Club soda and flavored vodkas aren't bad, or a glass or two of wine. Light beer is also a decent option. What do you normally like to drink?
