 I LOVE margaritas in the summer, just wish they weren't so loaded with sugar. I found this recipe for a "skinny" 'rita. Going to give it a try this weekend!

1 packet lemonade Crystal Lite To Go
1 can of CLEAR diet pop (any flavor you like)
1 shot tequila
Serve on the rocks

What's you favorite low cal adult beverage?

    Honestly, I would just take the rull calorie drink over that diet /lite crap.. in the end that stuff does way more damage (IMO) 


    Wine. Wine wine and more wine for me. It's pretty much the only alcoholic beverage I enjoy anymore :o)

    another vote for wine here! Napa valley Cab Sauv please!!

    BUT if I want a stronger drink, I like a gin and tonic with a slice of cucumber....its seriously one of the most refreshing summer drinks ever.

    I'm with souptin and firsttimer!
    I like my red wine. I found this cheap semi-sweet red called 'Rashi Claret' that I absolutely love. I usually have a glass with dinner. I use the excuse that it's got antioxidants and it's good for my heart lol

    A good mixed drink that I love is a diet vodka tonic with a lime. I normally don't drink diet anything, but I use diet tonic water with my vodka. Add a lime and it's so crisp and refreshing. Great summer drink!

    I also love my hard alcohol/mixed drinks though too, so I'll indulge once in awhile.

    As an FYI, Crystal Light makes Margarita and Mojito mixes. I personally do vodka (lowest sugar / calorie count) with club soda and a 1/4 packet of crystal light - yummies!

    Well, based on my SN, it's pretty obvious what my favorite beverage is...low cal or not.  If I'm really feeling light, vodka soda with lime or orange twist is a yummy low calorie option.  Otherwise, a glass of red wine (or two, or three).  Tongue Out

    firsttimersluck: I've found if you order a Hendricks martinin / G&T, it'll usually come with a cucumber.

    Same here! I won't consume artifical sweeteners or drink soda. Alcohol gives me chest pains anyway, so wine is all I get ;)

    I created something last night with frozen whole strawberries (that I picked a few weeks ago), a spash of OJ, and vodka that was delicious. Now I'm thinking alcohol-infused smoothies are the next million dollar idea....

    Wine and beer are my drinks of choice.  Unfortunately, I only like three "light" beers (Amstel, Corona, & Heineken) so that can be a problem.
