My Personal Trainer advised me of a vodka that is low in calories but will take a while to get used to. Lemon/Lime Vodka Waters.
Mush up fresh lime or lemon in the glass. Add ice and water and a nip of vodka.
Good Luck!0 -
I have no input as I hate vodka with all I have. Too much of it in my college years. Ughhh!
But I did want to say HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Mine is tomorrow! 6 years!
I agree, enjoy yourself tonight. Don't worry too much of the calories. We're going out to dinner tomorrow night for our anniversary and while I plan on getting fish because I love it, I'm also going to have a glass of wine and some kick *kitten* dessert!
I'll just work out a bit more tomorrow before we head out to make myself feel less guilty.0 -
Vodka and powerade 0 is yummy! Enjoy your anniversary - congratulations!0

Vodka and crystal lite lemon tea mix. Most of your calories come from the vodka and you can make it stiff cuz the tea hides the alcohol very well. Cheers!0
-
I always used to do Vodka and Tonic w/ Lime. Mixed properly, you won't taste vodka at all, unless it's really, really cheap. Vodka and soda is nasty any way you mix it.0

Ok I haven't read all of the previous posts so I'm not sure anyone has mentioned this yet, but my new favorite drink is this brand new low-calorie vodka called Voli light vodka. It has half the calories of regular vodka, only 72 calories for 1.5 ounces! And it's pretty good quality because it doesn't have that nasty rubbing alcohol taste. I actually usually mix it with water and a flavored drink packet like Crystal Light, or lately I've been using the liquid water flavoring stuff called Mio. Here's a link to the vodka website, and it has a ton of recipes for low-cal mixed drinks to make with it: http://www.volispirits.com/ Hope this helps!! I've really fallen in love with the stuff cause I can relax and have a few drink without the guilt!
This sounds freaking fantastic, do you know if it is sold in regular liquor stores? & do you know the price? thank you!
You're welcome! Not sure about the price because my best friend's got my first bottle for me as a gift for my birthday, but I know that they sell it at ABC liquor! Not sure if you have one wherever you live, but it's a regular liquor store that sells, beer, wine, liquor.0 -
goose and cranberry my fav0

I just had diet Dr. pepper and vodka last night, 'twas delicious, and I could barely taste the vodka. So I don't think Dr. Pepper 10 would be much different, good luck!0

Vodka is MUCH better for you b/c from a chemical standpoint, it's pure ethanol + water, usually in a 40/60 ratio. If you can see color in it, then it has impurities, plain and simple.
And when your liver has to filter all those impurites overnight while you sleep, you wake up with everybody's favorite nemesis.
Not that vodka doesn't have impurities, I didn't say that, but distillation and re-mixing with water are what give vodka the clear color and the minerals in the water will give it the flavor.
People like French champagne, and that French water grew those grapes. That same French water is going into Grey Goose, for instance. That's flavor for you.
As for everyone recommending Crystal Light, that works, but reasearch some of those ingredients on Google for a minute and then see if you still want it as much. Personally, if it has aspartame, acetlysulfame (sic), or sucralose, I will skip it entirely.0 -
I don't think anyone else has suggested La Croix flavored water beverages...it is all natural and has really yummy flavors. I personally like the coconut one and the cranberry-raspberry as a mix with alcohol.0

Mix it with crystal light0

Skinny Vodka!
It's vodka and water with some fresh lemons and limes that you squeeze in it.0 -
Alright, thanks everyone!
We found the Voli vodka that has way less calories, and I'm pairing it with Sprite Zero.
Thank you all!
The Voli looks awesome, by the way! Apparently it's very new!0 -

Yay! Glad you were able to find it! Happy Anniversary, hope you have an awesome night!0 -
Share his whiskey and drink whiskey and water, or just don't use any chasers- that's what I do when I drink to limit cals, just take shots.
Whatever you choose, drink as much water as possible to flush it out of your system faster in an attempt to do less damage.0 -

just make sure to dont eat carbs at least 3 hours before drinking,
I like to mix the vodka with "monster absulte zero"
or vodka soda water and a dash of lime juice0 -
Oh, and maybe do a sexy dance for him. It's a great way to burn of some of those extra calories. Have fun and be safe!0

Interesting, why should I not eat carbs 3 hours before drinking?0 -
Cherry Vodka and Coke Zero - you're welcome0

Try Diet Tonic Water and lemon. Very refreshing. 0 calories in the diet tonic water. Good Luck!0

Thank you very much sir. I should have a good 4 hours space in-between.0 -
Crystal light tastes AMAZING with vodka...you can't even taste it. Personally, I like the Pink Lemonade flavor.
EDIT: Ooops a little late to the party0 -
You've probably already decided.
But Vanilla vodka with diet Root Beer is seriously heaven. I never knew root beer could mix with anything and be so delicious.0 -
Try Vodka and Diet Tonic with a lime wedge. It's my go to and the tonic is 0 calories cause its diet. Aslo its not ssweet like some drinks.0
-
The better the vodka, the less taste it will give you if mixed with a diet coke or other mixer. Go top shelf, it's a special occasion.0
