Going out tomorrow night to a bar. I'm not a big drinker, but what I like to drink is pretty hefty in the calorie department. I was wondering if anyone has suggestions for low cal drinks. I don't care for beer or diet soda. Thanks!

    Flavored vodka and soda water = ~100 cal for the vodka and 0 for the soda water.
    White wine = ~120 cal per 5 oz
    "skinny" margarita = most bars will make you something like this which is genrally just tequilla (~100 cal) and lime juice (~8 cal per oz) with maybe a small splash of triple sec (~75 cal as long as it's just a splash)

    Just do shots! I can't stand beer, wine or coffee, but I do love a good blue UV & lemonade.

    My go to is always vodka water with a lime (or flavored vodka water).

    Soda water/seltzer is always my starter. Some of my favorites are seltzer+wine (wine spritzer), seltzer plus lime juice and vodka. Just stay away from the sugary syrups they use to make make many 'cocktails'.

    Ask for a double shot of tequila (150 cals) with soda water (0 cals) and a splash of orange juice (20 cals) and a lime wedge.

    Diet tonic no good? I like G&Ts with diet tonic, or even Seedlip (alcohol and calorie free gin) with same stuff.
