So, the "PIP your drink" and "Depressed" thread...

Got me thinking...
What do y'all drink that you're comfortable with the calorie/fat intake?
I like just about everything except Scotch, some white wine, and super sweet stuff.
I look forward to your advice.

    When I'm drinking I don't give a FF about calories.

    Is it bad that I never considered the calorie-fat intake when drinking? hmmm. I love home-made sangria and dry red wine. I love rum- but that tends to lean toward sweet stuff. Whiskey and water or whiskey sour.. My DH is a bartender on the side so sometimes we get cooky with it (however being pregnant it's been about 10 months since I've gotten to have alcohol).

    I feel comfortable eating everything but liver, mushrooms, cream cheese, and offal.

    It doesn't have to do with calorie/fat content, tho. 

    Really? Even the whipped kind? Hmmm...

    I'm with DreadLoc.  I don't give a FF about calories when I'm in the mood to drink.

    I LOVE scotch, though.

    I love booze.

    Except Anheuser Busch products, Chardonnay, white zin and Corona.

    True story: back in my early 20's, I tended bar.  I ALWAYS knew to card the girls who ordered white zin.  It never failed me.

    I never give a shlt about calories and fat content.  Double so when drinking.  I will drink anything that tastes good.

    My "go-to" drinks are margaritas, chocolate-y martinis and beer.

    It's probably considered a sweet drink, but if I'm counting calories, I go with Diet Coke and vanilla vodka.

    I like vodka sodas with lime if I'm watching calories. I think that runs at about 70 calories. Most times I just drink whatever sounds good though.

    I love a hard cider, especially the pear variety.  I don't worry about calories or fat while drinking, I just drink what I like!

    This. I want to focus on the things I eat and to always increase or improve my exercise. I don't get many chances to have a few drinks (when I'm not pregnant) so when I do I drink, I drink what I want!

    This is my siggy. Love it.

    Yuppers.  Amaretto sours sound good some nights, sometimes just vodka cran, sometimes a froofy girly something, or a lemon drop. 

    Besides, even if I start out caring, 4 drinks in & I get taquitos & whatever sounds good anyway.  lol

    This. I'd rather be fat and happy than skinny and not eat ice cream or have yummy drinks.

    I love vodka and soda water with a twist of lemon and lime.  Very light and refreshing during the summer!

    Definitely.  I never even consider how many calories are in whatever I'm drinking.

    I always think about calories when I drink. Sometimes I don't particularly CARE, but I always think about them.. I haven't had a pina colada or maragarita (other than the gross sugar free mix variety) in years. I used to love baileys but not I steer clear. I mostly drink gin and diet tonic. You can't get this at most bars- and I hate soda water- so at a bar I just drink regular gin and tonic, or sometimes diet coke and rum.

    I went through the low-carb alcohol fad until I realized they all just have a lot less booze in them! E.g. I almost bought a 6 pack of Mike's Light Hard Lemonade until I realized it was 3.2 alcohol. And the Skinny ____ line of products from bethanny frankel is all like 10% alcohol so I'd have drink the whole bottle anyway.. Embarrassed
