    You could always get something mixed with diet soda... and take your time with them, don't drink a lot!

    Rum and Diet Coke - 100 cal for an 8oz drink. Try to alternate an alcoholic drink with a non-alcoholic drink.

    Maybe one of these options:

    1. Vodka Cranberry Fizz

    If you pack your drink with nothing but cranberry juice, you’re looking at a pretty high calorie refreshment. In order to create a tasty yet low calorie alcoholic drink, simply replace half of the cranberry juice with diet sprite or sparkling water which adds a little fizz to the drink. You can even mix it up a little by using another kind of fruit juice in place of the cranberry. Just be sure that whatever juice you choose is 100% juice, not full of artificial flavors and sugars.

    2. Mai Tai

    When you are out for a drink with friends, it’s alright to order a mai tai, but make sure to ask for diet soda in place of the regular version they usually use, and you’ll save yourself quite a bit of calories. You can even ask for the soda to be omitted altogether in order to eliminate the biggest calorie source in the drink. In fact, eliminating the soda can reduce the drink’s calories by almost 40%!

    3. Cosmopolitan

    This is a tasty, pretty and relaxing drink that doesn’t harbor a lot of the calories many of the other drinks at the bar have. A mixture of vodka, triple sec and cranberry juice, and the drink has some nutritional properties in it to boot.

    4. Bloody Mary

    This concoction is well known as a morning or early day time drink, but the truth is that they make a great refresher any time of day, especially before dinner. They help to fill you up thanks to all the tomato juice in the drink, and they’re perfect for taking the edge off after a long day.
