Diet-friendly Alcohol

Yes, sound funny? but can be true. Great article from L Beeattie. One must be careful no matter what or when you decide to drink. I am just going to briefly set the tone for the article. You can do some research if it so intrigues you.
Wine the most friendly choice most only 20 calories.
Hard liquor Easy on diet the lowest calorie wise seems to be Vermouth. The rest from Rum to Cognac are in the high 60 to 70 calories depending on size of shot.
BEER Raise your glass. The best bet for the quantity 150 cal for 12 oz.--light beer is even better.
Liqueur: small but potent. They pack a BIG punch with about 155 cal for 1.5 oz serving.
If you budget your calories you can afford a drink or two on special occasions.
These are not hard core facts but just some interesting reading and thinking material.
