Lighten up Your Summer Cocktails for Your Diet Plans
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.
