Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / January 2004alcohol 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 > I am going to a "Gala" event this weekend and would like to have just one > alcohol mixed drink.

No-carb alcohol includes: Vodka, Gin, Whisky/Bourbon/Scotch, and Tequila. Have any of these with Soda and a lemon or lime.  Signature*?.?_?.?'??) ?.?' (_?.?'

My apologies -- I was sure rum had some carbs in it (it is, after all, made from sugar cane) Signature*?.?_?.?'??) ?.?' (_?.?'

I know you're not supposed to but just one...I Kerosene 1 X 10oz/250ml tall glass 1 X good shake Angrostrua Bitters http://www.angostura.com/recsoup.shtml 3 X Slake ICE spoons Fill - dont shake/stir - with Soda Drink 'em all night. Tip. In Aussie the custom is to shake a few drops of bitters into the glass and then swirl the glass so the Bitters coats the inside of the glass. Do Not Do this. Ask the bar tender to simply shake the Bitters in and fill the glass gently (the ice should protect the Bitters anyway) ,,yes, it does make a difference. enjoy MërëMåLË *.·´¨¨)) ¸.·´ .·´¨¨))* *((¸¸.·´ ..·´ ((¸¸.·´* How Much? http://www.foodstandards.gov.au/npc/anzfa_npc/ How Does That Work? http://tgos.org/newbie/rules.html http://livinginternet.com/u/ua.htm http://www.urbandictionary.com http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search http://www.newsreaders.com/link/link.cgi?group=comp.test Need A Friend? http://www-ai.ijs.si/eliza-cgi-bin/eliza_script >What is something tasty? Shot of Jack's in Canada Dry diet ginger ale. We mix vodka with Tangerine Diet Rite...I call it a "Screwed Rite". Kira in SC 225/199/140 LC since 8-6-03 >We mix vodka with Tangerine Diet Rite...I call it a "Screwed Rite". ROFL! You know... that doesn't sound half bad. Hmmm. May have to give that a try. I wish someone would make a sugar-free bitter lemon. 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. > take an 8 oz glass... put lotsa vodka in it.

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 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 > take an 8 oz glass... put lotsa vodka in it.

Hmm.. the club soda I saw in the grocery store yesterday had carbs in it. I'm thinking it had like 24g? -- Jen in ND LC since 12/1/03 Club soda is carbonated water, period. > > take an 8 oz glass... put lotsa vodka in it. The rest.. club soda.

I swear, water!... 2nd of all- no carbs in vodka or club soda. > > Hmm.. the club soda I saw in the grocery store yesterday had carbs in > it. I'm thinking it had like 24g? Then it wasn't club soda. Club soda is merely carbonated water. Bob >> Hmm.. the club soda I saw in the grocery store yesterday had carbs in >> it. I'm thinking it had like 24g? > > Then it wasn't club soda. Club soda is merely carbonated water. Seltzer is merely carbonated water. Club soda contains minerals, usually rich in sodium (hence the 'soda'). Probably, Jen encountered that fizziest of oxymorons, flavored club soda. Martin SignatureMartin Golding | Western philosophy: All that we can see is the illusion.
