    I guess you are asking for low calories. I doubt one or two of anything is really going to hurt that much. I'm having Crown tonight. 1 oz. is 69 calories.
  • Go with the vodka and fruit mixer maybe?

    I always do red wine! It seems to give me the least amount of calories.

    Gin & Diet Tonic

    whatever it is please NO fruit juices (too much sugar). Make sure your mixer is Diet (diet Coke, diet 7-up, etc) and you'll be fine :)

    Cheers! :drinker:

    When watching calories, I'll go for light beer. Tonight, I'm going for margaritas! Cheers.

    No,alternate.
    I did once open a can of soda (was outside and at night) and pour half out and refill with Tequila.
    Turns out it wasn`t soda but a beer...that was an interesting combination. :tongue:
  • Vodka with sugar free redbull would be the lowest in calories (personally I go with crystal light's fruit punch, but they don't serve that anywhere haha).
