Okay, so I don't drink too much...:wink: I'm just curious what's the best, or perhaps the least terrible cocktail for some one who tries to eat a low carb/ high protein diet? I know a (a, meaning just one) glass of red wine is good for the heart, but are there any other favorites/suggestions that I can swap in occassionally

    Anything that is 80 proof or above should have 0 carbs. Pair that with diet soda of your choice and there you go!

    The following have zero carbs:

    Vodka
    Gin
    Whiskey
    Tequila
    Rum (Dark & white)
    Cognac
    Brandy
    Bourbon

    Pair with diet/sugar free (check carbs) Coke, lemonade, ginger beer, soda water, cream soda, cloudy lemonade, fanta.

    There are 0.4g in 1 1/4 oz/ 35 mls of morgans spiced rum (My personal fave, with diet coke)

    Raspberry or Pear Vodka & Club Soda is my go-to cocktail.

    70 Calories, -0- Carbs

    - Be careful because you can get drizzunk if you did not eat enough.

    There is of course a school of thought that says artificial sweeteners can be as detrimental to your health./blood sugar levels as real sugar. some people are just so sensitive that the sweet taste sets their bodies off.

    Best to just avoid it completely...

    My favorite is 1 shot of tequila (sometimes 2 if I want it stronger), 1 packet of lemonade crystal light, and 6 Oz of Sprite Zero. Makes for a good mock-arita..
