  1. Mojitos and Gin & Tonics are the best.

    Margaritas (made from mixes) are the absolute worst.

    Nothing mixed with soda is good for you.


  2. The lowest low calorie drink you can have is Bourbon and water, or Scotch and soda.

    An ounce of 80 proof liquor, which is 40% aalcohol, is 80 calories.  If it is 100 proof, it is 100 calories. When you mix it you add calories and that adds inches.

    If you can drink Scotch on the rocks or Bourbon and water,

    you will be drinking the lowest caloric intake. That would be the best drink to have if you want to lose weight.

    Avoid beer and wine and any mixers from a can or a bottle. They contain high (compared to water) calories; so do fruit juices.

    Gin and tonic is lower than rum and coke, but the tonic has sweeteners and that brings up the calories.  A bloody Mary is also high because of the calories in the tomato juice. Lower than coke, but higher than water or ice cubes.

    So that would be the most healthy drink: any hard liquor with water or ice cubes.

    Champagne and wine calories are based on the amount of alcohol too. The higher the per centage of alcohol, the more calories and the least healthy they are. So the bubbles in the Champagne don't count.

    You can get used to drinking Scotch and water or Bourbon and water.  It takes some time but a lot of people swear by it.

  3. White wine spritzers or any clear coloured spirit (gin, vodka etc.) with a diet mixer.

  4. Gin and tonic.

  5. vodka and slim line tonics are best, champagne is same calories as wine. you just care less with champagne. for some reason i lost lots of weight drinking more, even pina coladas, maybe because i dont comfort eat cuz im already comforted ;) lol whatever works. margaritas all around.

  6. Vodka with tonic water and fresh lime juice

  7. I think Gin and diet tonic water is the lowest. And I think champagne is higher in calories than wine (but every girl knows that champagne calories dont count!!) I dont know about healthiest to be honest, but I know spirits are lower in cals than beer and wine and those alco pops like bacardi breezer and WKD

  8. Rum (the clear kind, like Bacardi Silver) and Diet Coke.

  9. Avoid anything fizzy, especially mixers. If you like vodka on it's own then that's prob the best or drink it with some orange juice but never with coke, coke it the devil

  10. Wine, in moderation, is probably the best health alternative.  No alcoholic beverages are low calorie.  Try mixing your drinks with soda or mineral water or alternate, have one drink then one glass of water.
