I used to like lager & lime but have switched to drinking White Zinfendale Rose wine all the time now, but i'm interested to find out if other alcoholic drinks are lower in calories??
I thought all alcohol drinks were high cal? but but then again that's Atkins skewing my thinking. For low carb I drink dry red wine and G&T with a diet tonic of course.
I don't drink alcohol myself so fortunately don't have this problem, but it seems going for a spirit with a diet mixer or wine is best, there are a lot of cals in beer/lager.

Calories in a glass of Champagne (120ml): 89
Calories in a glass (50ml) of sherry: 68

Calories in a pint of Guinness: 170
Calories in a pint of beer: 182kcal
Calories in a can (550ml) of lager: 221
All dry wines are much better as they are lower in sugar contents. Mix with soda water to dilute for a spritzer .... unless of course, you want to get blootered quicker!
Lol same here Jim, tho I think it'd only take one to put me flat on my back now!! I used to drink way too much of the stuff, and yes half a bottle (or even a whole bottle ) would've been what I used to have before going out of the door lol! But I haven't drank now for over 6 years and I definitely don't miss it!
