Now that I am officially 21, I’ll be heading to the bars a lot more frequently—like any other college female. My only concern about downing tons of drinks is consuming all those calories. I did some online research and found some low-cal alcoholic beverages that will surely leave me tipsy.
Cosmopolitan (vodka, triple sec, lime juice, cranberry juice): 200 calories
Green Apple Martini (Apple schnapps, vermouth, vodka): 148 calories
Bloody Mary (tomato juice, vodka, lemon juice): 118 calories
Vodka Tonic: 200 calories
Screwdriver (orange juice, vodka): 190 calories
Mimosa (champagne and orange juice): 75 calories
Rum and Diet: 100 calories

Be sure to stay away from Long Island Iced Teas (780 cal), White Russians (425 cal), and Mai Tais (350 cals). The worst drink of all? A single glass of TGIFridays’s frozen mudslide contains a whopping 1,100 calories! That’s equivalent to 11 rum and diets!
