    I found out (after the bottle was gone) that Skyy Vodka (750ml) has over 1700+ calories. That's crazy! If only we could learn to make it jelcaps, lol! So jk...or am I?

    Well that is 68 cals per ounce (30ml), so not too bad, the whole bottle happens to have 25 oz though, which is a lot.

    Sparkling wine/champagne is lower in calories than regular wine. I think it's around the 100 calorie mark for a 4 or 5 ounce pour, but don't quote me on that. Trader Joe's has a really nice Blanc de Blancs for $5.99.

    It's made from a plant therefore it's Paleo?

    Captain and diet coke is about as low as you can get for the alcohol content. And its delicous.

    Echoing what others have said: I stick to spirits (whisky, vodka) with club soda. Once in a while, a light beer. I measure it out and religiously record the calories. The problem is, if I drink too much (more than two shots), I'm inclined to eat more. It's a tricky balance, but I'm not willing to give up the pleasure of booze entirely!

    Whisky rocks, with a splash of water. I've come to find I really love a good islay scotch, too. It's around 69 cals an ounce. Takes me a while to sip too, so I enjoy it longer.
    Otherwise, mixed drinks are vodka soda with lime or vodka and sprite zero.

    Or beer. Any kind. I can't limit myself to low calorie beer.... I love it too much. I just fit it in.

    A bottle of Cava or Processco is about 500Cals. Half a bottle... Only 250 Cals which is less than drinking something like beer that can really add up.
