For me, I like a cold beer in a frosted glass while watching sports on tv.  Othertimes, especially in summer, I kind of prefer the fruity cocktail concoctions. But these can give you a beer belly faster than a Harley guy with a winning lottery ticket. A Cosmo or a Tequila Sunrise can go north of 200 calories per drink depending on how they are made. I recently discovered  that using Crystal Light as the mixer instead of sugar and fruit juice would remove most of the calories (an 8 ounce serving of Crystal Light only has 5 calories) and leave a lot of the fruit flavor. Since Crystal Light comes in a wide variety of flavors, you can come up with a girly cocktail to fit almost any taste. My personal favorite concoction is a Key West Sunset, pictured here, made with pineapple-orange Crystal light and a shot of either vodka or rum depending on my mood. Only 70 calories per drink. So put on some Jimmy Buffett and kick back this weekend with one of these.
