Drinks that shrink

Watch your waistline this summer with these alternative drinks:

• Instead of a Margarita (that contains 500 calories), opt for a Cosmopolitan that only contains 150 calories
• Choose a Mojito (160 calories) or a Bloody Mary (120 calories) instead of a Daquiri (305 calories) or a Long Island Ice Tea (700 calories)
• Other lighter drink alternatives: light beer (100 calories), wine or sangria (100-120 calories)
