Carving out your beach body with tougher workouts and new diets? Don’t forget to factor in the calories that you’re drinking as well! Here’s 7 alcoholic beverages with lower calories, so that you can still enjoy the night life this Summer.
Champagne – A typical 4 oz glass of champagne has only 85 calories! That’s nearly 100 calories less than a beer!
Skinny Mojito – Making sure no syrups are used, and that diet Sprite or club soda is mixed instead of regular Sprite can give you a Mojito as low as 75 calories.
Vodka and diet soda – Remember that a serving of regular soda is 170 calories without alcohol. Instead, mix a diet Coke with a flavored vodka – Cherry or Vanilla taste the best. Choosing diet soda can not only give you a mixed drink under 100 calories but also give a greater buzz.
Skinny Cosmopolitan – A regular Cosmo is 212 calories for only 4 ounces! Instead, have Raspberry vodka with club soda and a splash of cranberry juice – it tastes the same but only has 115 calories!
Gin and Diet Tonic – Most people don’t realize that tonic water has 124 calories in a serving. Adding in the 85 to 100 calories in a shot of gin (or any hard alcohol) gives you a drink over 200 empty calories. Diet tonic or even seltzer water gives the fizz without the carbs and added sweeteners in regular tonic water.
Bloody Mary – While more of an acquired taste, most of this drink contains tomato juice, giving you Fiber, Protein, and Calcium! At 125 calories, this drink is a great choice for dieters because it provides nutritional benefits!
Skinny Appletini – Typically 250 calories, this cocktail can be as little as 100 calories if mixed with a diet mixer.
