Alcoholic Beverage alternatives

vodka and diet tonic with a lime. Vodka is the lowest calorie liquor, I believe.

(or vodka with diet coke, diet sprite, club soda.... you get the picture)

I like to mix vodka with a little crystal light and a splash of sprite zero for a sweeter alternative. Or sometimes I do sugar free redbull and a splash of diet cranberry juice with vodka (sounds weird but tastes great)

Grey Goose! LOVELY

Vodka and Sprite Zero on ice FTW!!

Well, I'm with you on this one. If I can make my own (let's say having a party or going to a friends house) I'll have....

1. bacardi lemon rum, diet tonic water & 4C half/half. VERY YUMMY
2. captain morgan spiced rum & diet coke

I'm not a big drinker but may have 1 or 2 glasses per month. I always double up on my water intake between drinks.
I'll be curious to see what you get for responses.
Good luck

I like Jack and coke zero personally but use your imagination. Just make sure it's a distilled product (whiskey, gin, vodka, etc) + non sugary addition (diet drinks, sugar free red bull, lime or lemon juice, etc.) if you're trying to minimize calories.

Water?

Did you want only alcoholic beverages?

Lately, vodka and sprite zero.

I have made a skinny margarita with the lime store brand of Crystal light and tequila.

White wine spritzer with diet sprite and any good wine

Diet sprite and a splash of low-cal orange juice and some fresh strawberry puree with vodka

Diet sprite and a few Maraschino cherries muddled together and cherry vodka

Alcohol content and calories are directly related. The higher the alcohol content the more calories. I believe about 60-80 calories per ounce of liquor and 120 for a light beer. Light beer is nice just because it is a lot of liquid and will allow you to drink slower. If you don't like light beer, however, the only low calorie option your typical bar will have is diet soda/tonics as a mixer. Orange juice, tomato juice, sours, lemonade will all be calorie bombs. What you might try is to get creative... Im not a fan of the taste of tonic so sometimes i will ask for something like "a vodka soda with a splash of lime/orange juice/cranberry". Soda water has no calories and can be perked up with a splash citrus. It wont knock your socks off, but its tolerable and within reason.

Why not drink the beverages you enjoy? If you're not doing it all the time, you can plan for it, work out a little extra that day, etc. and truly enjoy the drinks with a nice meal or night out with friends.

Agreed............jack and coke = awesome............jack and diet.............garbage............booze isn't good for you, if you are going to drink it, drink it the way you like instead of trying to rationalize it and "make it better"

I used to drink 2-3 beers every night after work, after starting this nonsense, I am more like 2-3 a week............when the calories are left i drink em'.........if not, water it is...............i don't care if i can have three bud selects instead of one "real" beer............give me the real stuff anyday.............

Rum and diet Coke

Vodka and diet Sprite

If in the mood for beer, get the light ones
