5 Tips for Making Low Calorie Cocktails

If you’re not careful, the cocktails you consume on game day may be loaded with calories. While it’s possible to find cocktails under 200 calories, many cocktails come in at a much higher count. Alcohol itself can be quite caloric, so when you add sugary mixers and syrups, one game day drink can end up being hundreds of calories. Pair that with classic Super Bowl recipes like chicken wings, creamy dips and sliders, and you’re in for a VERY indulgent day. Below we’re giving you our best tips for making low calorie cocktails so you don’t spend the day in a sugar coma.

1. Steer Clear of Liqueurs
Certain sweeter, creamier alcohols are already packed with sugar and calories. Steer clear of liqueurs such as Baileys, Kahlua, schnapps, and crème de mint if you’re looking to make a low calorie cocktail. These will bring the calorie count way up before even adding any mixers. High proof spirits are the best alcohol varieties to use to keep your cocktails low cal.

2. Skip Pre-Made Mixes
Pre-made mixes for cocktails like mojitos may be convenient, but they’re typically packed with sugar, which means more calories. Opt to make your own mix so you know exactly what’s going into your cocktail. Instead of using syrups and sugars, you can flavour your mojito with mint, lime and stevia. It will be sweet, fresh and low in calories!

3. Use Natural Ingredients
While you can find mixers and juices in pretty much any flavour, they’re bound to be loaded with sugar and calories. Instead, use fresh, low-calorie ingredients such as fresh fruits to give a punch of flavour to your cocktail. A margarita sweetened with fresh juice squeezed from oranges, limes and lemons will be much healthier than using sugary mixes and syrups.

4. Choose Sugar-Free Mixers
When choosing mixers for your cocktails, pick sugar free options like soda water, fresh citrus fruit or diet soda. And don’t confuse tonic water with soda water. While many people assume they’re the same thing, tonic water contains added sweeteners, giving it a lot more sugar and calories.

5. Go Green
Fresh herbs are a great way to add flavour to your cocktail and take your drink up a notch. Herbs like mint, basil, rosemary and thyme add some nutrients to your cocktail without any calories. It’s the perfect way to add a dose of flavour without any sugars, syrups or juices.
