    First thing that came to mind was gin and slimline tonic. If you don't like tonic then diet soda and a spirit vodka/white rum.

    If you like wine, sparkling wine is lower calorie because of the bubbles and the smaller serving size. A standard glass of prossecco is around 90 calories.

    Prosecco has fewer cals than wine.
    Gin and slimline tonic is my go to, its only around 50 cals.

    I like to nurse a Whiskey with Ice, around 70 cals a shot or have Vodka & Soda Water with some fresh lime or occasionally I will take a low cal water enhancer thingy out with me and have different flavour in my vodka.

    Tell me this - someone once told me that if you drink diet anything with hard liquor - it would have some strange higher intensity to it. How can this be? Are they full of crap ?lol

    The diet part is crap..... but carbonated mixers will make you drunk faster.
