Below you will find 3 simple tips to healthier boozing, along with 3 healthier alcoholic drinks that you can enjoy this weekend guilt free [in moderation of course!].

3 simple tips to healthier boozing:

  • Use real fruit instead of sugar or flavored syrups, or other sugary mixes. The real fruit adds fiber, natural sugars, and vitamins.
  • One shot maximum – limit your drinks to just one shot. Multi shot drinks can start really adding up the calories, not to mention inhibit your ability to make wise decisions J
  • Choose seltzer water over other carbonated water to eliminate added sodium and other additives. If a drink usually has soda, go light on the portion or simply swap it out for a more natural version.

 

Healthy Alcoholic Drinks:
