Sport healthy alcoholic drinks?

[scubadhp]

I'm going out tonight for a friends birthday and was wondering what people suggest as healthy alcoholic beverages. I want to try to stay away from beer as I am just starting out this new diet/lifestyle changes. I appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks!

Beer/liquor really doesn't work with this lifestyle however if you must have a drink I'd go with bacardi light w/diet coke.

I think it's somewhere around 60 cal or so but remember its all useless empty calories.

I know all alcoholic beverages are inherently unhealthy and are all empty calories, but it would be good to have a few beverage choices that aren't as bad as most recipes out there. Thanks for your replies!

That's like asking for healthy french fries.

7empty calories per gram of alcohol..body can't use it for anything, and it screws with insulin levels, stunts muscle recovery.

but since you asked...screwdrivers. OJ for vitamin C, and fine vodka wont' leave you hungover.
or drink water and be the designated driver.

i agree with the screwdriver... or maybe a tequila sunrise wouldnt be that bad.
but i have a little bias towards those
