Diet Friendly Alcoholic Drinks

Most of us are aware that consuming alcohol while on a diet is not the best or smart choice. However, sometimes you are in a situation where it may want to indulge or it's hard to sip water all night. So what are the best, diet-friendly alcoholic drinks?

These are the best choices according to Spark People:

• Red or white wine
• Scotch
• Vodka
• Light  or draft beer
• Martini
• Manhattan

Conversely, and as you can guess, according to Live Strong stay away from sweet, sugary mixed drinks, such as:

• Margarita
• Long Island ice tea
• White Russian
• Slushy
• Irish Coffee
• Pina Colada
• Eggnog
• Mai Tai
• Brandy Alexander
• Amaretto Sour

I must admit that some of my favourite cocktails are in the second group. If you can't refrain, choose wisely and remember moderation is the key on your journey to being healthy and fit.
