fitting your favorite drinks into your diet

Let's get one thing straight, when I use the word "diet" I purely mean it as what you eat daily, not being on an actual diet. Because let's be super clear here, diets don't work. We all know it. Diets are away to set boundaries on yourself and ultimately set yourself up for failure. No one works well under restrictions, especially when it comes to food. So with that being said, I don't believe in completely depriving ourselves either. 

I love my tacos and tequila, my pasta and red wine, and my pizza and beer. So no, I'm not ever giving it up. With that being said, there are always different variations that you can have and still enjoy your favorites. So let's dive in. 

Mixed drinks: Keep it simple 
Your favorite liquor + seltzer or soda water + fruit 
What I do? Tequila with seltzer with a lime, lemon and orange slice 
*You can ask your bartender to muddle the fruits first, although you can totally do it yourself with a straw* 

Beer: Go lighter
There are so many light beers out there now, you can still have your favorite brand since most of them have their own version now. 
What I do? Coronas premier beer, it's 90 calories and pretty much tastes like a regular Corona. Oh and don't forget your lime! 

Wine: Organic all the way 
I say organic wine because it has less sulfurs and the hangover is much less then typical wine. Also look for wine lower in calories, and sugar. The brand Skinny Girl is a great option as well as a lower calorie option. 
What I do? White wine is typically less calories so I'll stick to a white wine and add in fresh berries for extra taste.
