Looking out for and having a low calorie alcoholic drink when you go out will be very helpful to whatever exercise program you are on. A lot of people actually think that what they are drinking is not very high in calories but anytime you have alcohol there are going to be calories. The trick will be to minimize the damage. As an example a vodka based cocktail will always have calories but the chaser you have like might give even more. But there are a lot of low calorie alcoholic drinks out there so you dont need to worry.
In this article we will show you some cocktails and the recipes so you can limit the damage.
A simple but nice and low calorie cocktail is to mix rum with diet coke. Clocking in at just 110 calories, this replacement for the age old rum and coke will help you keep the calories down. The only reservation for most people is the difference in taste with diet coke not as sweet as the normal version. Nevertheless it is still known as the best low calorie alcoholic cocktail.
One of the most popular drinks is the vodka cranberry combination. Now due to the cranbery juice, the calories and sugar levels can be very high so in order to negate that, have it made with a ligher cranberry flavored drink and that will drop the calories down to about 140.
Now onto the ever famous Cosmo, this cocktail is one of the most popular cocktails, drunk mostly be women. Its made up of 2 parts triple-sec, two parts crystal lite cranberry juice, four parts vodka and one part fresh lime juice. An absolute treat for very few calories.
Last but not least is the Mojito. If made to the correct recipe yields only 160 calories along with 15 grams of sugar. It consists of sugar, mint leaves, fresh lime, club soda and the alcohol is light rum.
