Why not just get shots? That way you don't even have to worry about the mixer and you can still get a buzz going. I recommend 151.
Then again I am an alky, so do with this what you will.

Bloody Mary's might not be too bad calorie wise, and they are my current favorite drink.

mmm, those are really good. Especially during a rowdy brunch but I digress. I second the grapefruit Danzka. the flavoring makes it super smooth so its easy to drink without adding much to it. One of the few vodkas i can drink on ice with no additives. So its like a shot with the added bonus of getting hold something in the bar, which I prefer.

A good rule of thumb is, the lighter the colour of the alcohol, the fewer the calories.
I'm a vodka and cranberry girl, though I have no idea what that's like calorie wise.

Danzka is the one that comes in the aluminum bottle, kind of looks like a martini shaker, right? That stuff is pretty good, a friend of mine had that last weekend at our tailgate. It seemed like the aluminum kept the vodka colder, which is always nice. It was also cool, the cops couldnt give us any trouble because we were keeping in line with the no glass rules (and we didnt have to by horrible vodka that came in plastic bottles to do it)

You're right, it comes in the aluminum bottle. I think I mentioned earlier in this thread that I had tried it and then this weekend I was at a wedding and got to try it again. It was so smooth and so tasty...we were drinking lots of fruity drinks and it went perfectly.

Gin and Tonic has the lowest calories of any mixed drink... if you want to avoid all the sodium that tonic water has, ask for seltzer water instead...
besides the low amount of calories, it is tres chic to order a G&T...
I like mine with extra lime...

krazy -- awesome! Glad you liked the Danzka. I'm totally hooked on the grapefruit flavor.
Thetagirl, you're right! everyone orders G&Ts in lounges... except I think they taste like pine sol so I stick to my vodka drinks. Plus I think you can do more with vodka in terms of cocktails.

I like the grapefruit flavor too, but out of curiousity, do you know if they have any other flavors? I love the grapefruit but I bet other flavors would be yummy too.

Mmmm... G&Ts!
I totally feel the pain though. Back in second term of university, I would go back to my hometown every other weekend and go out to the bars with friends.
I would have 8 (eight!) drinks!!!! And I wondered why I gained that frosh 15....

Danzka also makes Citron and Currant, in addition to the regular and Grapefruit flavors. I was out in NYC a few weeks ago and they were a bunch of girls ordering Danzka Grapefruit and Tonics. I knew it was bound to catch on sooner or later. I first got hooked on vanilla flavored vodka, but that got old really quick. I am all about the grapefruit now...

Mixed Drinks
Do you have some strange recipes for cocktails in your country? I've been a bartender for about 5 years and have visited 3 countries (Italy, France and Germany) and I must say there are often strange recipes not found anywhere else
What are the strangest recipes you've been asked to mix?
