So, yes I like to have a few drinks on the weekend I have had the 64 calorie beer, also I do a vodka tonic with diet tonic water. What are some other drinks that are not so bad for you/

Thanks

    I love a refreshing Wine Spritzer... White Zinfandel with soda water (the 0's down the NI label), slice of lime and lemon... VERY refreshing!

    I don't like the MGD 64, but the Bud Select 55 is pretty good. My sisters swear by ordering vodka and water and using those individual size crystal light packages - the fruit punch and pink lemonade. White wine is better than red wine... The skinny girl margaritas are "ok" but don't make me feel like I have had a margarita!

    Captain Morgan and Coke Zero. The rum has some calories in it, but the Coke Zero has none, so I figure it all balances out. Probably not, But I can dream right?

    Red wine here too. Cabernet Sauvignon is my favorite for taste. 90 calories per 4 ounces...and totally worth it!

    I do the same thing with the crystal light packets! And while camping this summer I did the same thing with Vodka, water, and Mio!

    I usually do any kind of whiskey/rum with a little bit of coke...my favorites are Jack Daniels honey with cherry coke, any whiskey/rum with coke, or just straight Sailor Jerry, Jack Daniels, Jack Daniels Honey, Captain Morgan etc...

    Ok, now I need a drink!

    Red or white wine will be about 100 calories/glass.
    A mojito will be around 150 calories.
    I prefer regular light beer (about 100 calories) over the MGD 64. MGD 64 tastes too much like water and has less alcohol, so I end up drinking more.
    Bloody Mary will be around 150 calories (bonus is you eat the celery)

    Avoid margaritas, pina coladas, and daiquiris! They can be 500+ sometimes.

    When I drink, I don't skimp. Budget the calories and go.

    Guinness and red wine are staples. Bonus, both have health benefits.

    Hard liquor - give me my rum, Irish cream, schnapps, and Irish whiskey (not all at the same time. :smile:)
