Enjoying a nice drink on a warm summer evening is so refreshing.  To keep calories in check make sure to watch your portions (glass size) of your alcoholic beverages.  Keeping sugars/syrups to a minimum while still enjoying a delicious drink is possible.  Club soda is a zero calorie mixer which is a great option for summer cocktails. Read below for 3 Low-Calorie Summer Drinks to share with your friends that range between 100-130 calories each.

  1. Tequila Spritzer:  Simply mix 1½ oz tequila,  a few ounces of club soda, and a splash of orange juice and pour over ice. Top with a Maraschino cherry for color and sweetness. 
  2. Coconut Coaster: Simply mix 1½ oz coconut rum, a few ounces of club soda, and a splash or pineapple juice. Garnish with orange slices.
  3. Light Greyhound: Simply mix 1½ oz gin or vodka, with a few ounces of club soda, and a splash of grapefruit juice.  Too tart? Add stevia or another zero calorie sweetener.

Light cranberry juice and diet sodas can also be good mixers.  Cool off with a light beverage tonight!
