We rounded up 13 low-sugar, low-calorie cocktails to help you have fun and stay healthy. Cheers to the weekend (or just making it through the weekday\u2014is it 5 pm yet?)!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<p>Any registered dietitian will tell you that, when it comes to maintaining a healthy lifestyle, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/80-20-diet-rule\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">balance is key<\/a>. So what if you\u2019re trying to stay healthy but still want to enjoy cocktails when you\u2019re with friends and family? There are ways to stay on track without cutting out alcohol from your diet completely. \u201cThe research on drinking alcohol and health is mixed, and, like many things, it\u2019s best consumed in moderation, if at all,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/author\/gaby-vaca-flores\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">Gaby Vaca-Flores<\/a>, RDN, CLE HUM\u2019s education specialist. \u201cIf you have a healthy relationship with alcohol and choose lower sugar options when possible, it can be part of your lifestyle.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<p>The key is to be intentional with the ingredients. Many cocktails are loaded with sugar, which can spike your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/should-you-monitor-blood-sugar-levels\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">blood sugar levels<\/a>, leading to excess caloric intake, and can make <a href=\"https:\/\/www.humnutrition.com\/blog\/what-to-eat-when-youre-hungover\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\">hangovers<\/a> worse. But if you choose drinks that have less sugar and fewer calories, you\u2019ll be able to drink in moderation and still make progress towards your health goals.\u00a0 (But it\u2019s worth checking out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/alcohol\/fact-sheets\/moderate-drinking.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CDC\u2019s recommendations about alcohol<\/a> consumption for men and women.) We rounded up 13 healthy cocktail recipes (including one healthy mocktail if you want to skip alcohol altogether) so that you can have fun and stay healthy.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-best-low-calorie-alcohols-to-use\">The Best Low-Calorie Alcohols to Use<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Different types of alcohol have different calorie counts. In order to choose healthy alcoholic drinks, it\u2019s important to understand how many calories are in each alcohol. Here\u2019s the calorie count for one serving of each type of liquor:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Bourbon: 105 cal<\/li><li>Gin: 110 cal<\/li><li>Rum: 97 cal<\/li><li>Tequila: 64 cal<\/li><li>Vodka: 96 cal<\/li><li>Whiskey: 105 cal<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to craft a healthier cocktail, you\u2019ll want to use alcohols like tequila, vodka, or rum. Still, bourbon, gin, and whiskey are fine to use as well. What it really comes down to is the mixers or other ingredients you choose to use\u2014as those can greatly increase the sugar and caloric content of the cocktail quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-13-healthy-cocktail-recipes-to-try-asap\">13 Healthy Cocktail Recipes to Try ASAP<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re looking for a low-calorie cocktail recipes or simply just a healthier drink option, we\u2019ve got you covered.
