alcohol mixed drink?
I am going to a "Gala" event this weekend and would like to have just one
alcohol mixed drink. I know you're not supposed to but just one...I promise. I will be on day 9 by then. I am going to try and get more exercise than usual that day. What are some of my choices in the lowest carb/calorie? I love Bloody Mary's but that has too much tomato and screw drivers are out. I guess a glass of red wine but I really only like red wine with meals. What is something tasty? dot |

Stick with a rum and diet-coke and you will be fine. No you wont! Rum has lots of sugar in it. No-carb alcohol includes: Vodka, Gin, Whisky/Bourbon/Scotch, and Tequila. Have any of these with Soda and a lemon or lime. -- *._.') .' (_.'

He asked about LC. This is from Atkins.com:
"Pure spirits (vodka, gin, Scotch and rum) don?Tt contain any carbs." I stand corrected! My apologies -- I was sure rum had some carbs in it (it is, after all, made from sugar cane) -- *._.') .' (_.'

alcohol mixed drink?
take an 8 oz glass... put lotsa vodka in it. The rest.. club soda. I swear
this almost cancels out the vodka. First of all, if it's mixed right it tastes like nothing! I swear, water!... 2nd of all- no carbs in vodka or club soda. I think it's called a belvedere. AND- with all that vodka, you only need ONE!.. I know your posting is old but i wanted to respond anyway. I am pretty excited about this site. |

I drink these from time to time too - I measure out a jigger of vodka (just so I know how much I'm having for calorie-counting purposes) and add a splash of lemon juice to the glass after filling it with soda. carla |

Club soda is carbonated water, period.

I'm thinking it had like 24g? -- Jen in ND LC since 12/1/03 |
