Happy Hour!
OK! I'm sure this has been discussed, but I didn't see anything from what I've looked at so far (aka I'm a newbie).
So... my coworkers and friends and I like (and by like, I mean LOVE) to go to happy hour and kick back with some adult beverages and de-stress once a week. I can (usually) keep away from the bar food.. but those beers taste soo good! ;) So my question to all of you chicks out there that enjoy happy hour is this: How do you handle happy hour? What's your skinny beverage of choice?? |
Vodka gimlet -- vodka and lime juice -- isn't a bad choice.
Although I don't really drink -- I have a diet soda and enjoy that, LOL |
Thanks shanhat! Is there soda water in that?... I'm not much for shots
|
I am in the same boat. Omitting drinking all together (although I did cut down ALOT) just wasn't going to happen! I normally go for MGD 64 with a lime - for some reason I like it much better with the lime and have gotten a lot of people hooked on it. My other go to's are vodka and club with a lime. OR a skinny margarita which is basically tequila, a splash of triple sec and a few lime wedges (or several depending on how strong you like your drinks).
If you are drinking in home - the skinny girl brand margarita and sangria are delicious. Enjoy happy hour! ;) |
Yum! Will try those ideas Ona! Thanks :)

I've just discovered Zilch margarita mix - www.zilchmixers.com
They're packets of powder that you mix with tequila & water or rum & water. I am definitely NOT a margarita snob, but I really like these. I usually ask for extra lime. :cheers: If I'm really wanting gin & tonic, I've found that gin & club soda with lime is an acceptable bar substitute. Bars never have diet tonic. :( |
Cremesicle shots so yum
I found this delicious cremesicle shots recipe and they are only 70 calories!
Makes about 2 shots Ingredients: 1 oz. orange juice 1 oz. half & half 1 oz. Voli Orange Vanillia Splash of Grand Marnier Directions: Place all four ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds, ensuring that the mixture is ice cold. Strain into two shot glasses and enjoy! Calories: 70 per shot you should def try this sometime :) otherwise I usually try to go for drinks with low cal vodka's like Voli vodka. It has electrolytes and its flavored. |
One glass of wine and club soda for the rest of the time unless it's too expensive... i will order water without a problem. i'm not usually invited to the happy hours though. shrug.
|
Try vodka and diet soda with lots of lemon! Also, I've tried Voli vodka lyte which is really smooth and only like ~50 calories. Good luck!
