    I usually get a vodka and cranberry or a lemon drop on the rocks and I tell them not to use the mix. If they make it with just sugar, lemon juice and vodka it's usually 70-75 cals each. I also make sure to sip water in between drinks.

    Try a red wine thats called 'Sweet Red. Its tastes great, and its sweet like white, and not as tart as red.

    i like diet rootbeer and whipped vodka - tastes like a rootbeer float.

    Dry red wine is the best.

    I wish I liked red wine! I'm more of a white wine kinda girl. Maybe eventually I'll acquire a taste for it!

    You might try some warm climate Pinot Noirs. They tend to be fruitier without being super sweet (aka extra sugar + carbs).

    Orrrrr, just don't drink.

    we must have a little vice in our lives. It makes restrictive diets more bearable! ;)
