Your best bet for calories is drinking liquor straight or with water. I know you said you don't like whisky, but like most things it is an acquired taste. I used to hate it and then slowly kept trying it and now love it. Try a Pendleton cloudy (whisky/water/splash of coke). You still get a tiny bit of that coke flavor but your mostly drinking water. Or just man up and start drinking scotch (Macallan & Dalmore are pretty easy drinking IMO). Also Jameson as actually probably the smoothest reasonably priced whisky if you don't want to spend $$ for scotch. I thinks its actually smoother than most 12 year scotches.

All the fitness chicks/dudes seem to drink vodka waters, so i guess you can go that route to. I guess it depends what type of guy you are, Ron Swanson or Richard Simmons.

A couple of the summer mixes that quenches my thirst:

1) Black Velvet makes a Toasted Almond whiskey. I mix this with water & ice. Mighty tasty.

2) MinuteMaid lemonade (carton at Walmart for $1.25) and Jeremiah Weed (tea flavor).


You can always make a batch of Apple Pie homemade moonshine and piss the day away with the world spinning in circles!

Crown water on ice.

It really does grow on you. First time around, you gotta choke down the first one or two. Next time, you choke down the first one or two sips. Next time around, game on.

Sincerely a well made Manhattan with a top shelf rye whiskey about makes my mouth water.

You have to have a liking to the flavor of whiskey, or you won't be able to handle 4 of them, 5 if your johnr

Why not just stick to water and coffee? Or perhaps i'm not following the direction of this post very well... If you have to drink to have fun then you may not be having as much fun as you think. ;) Just my 2 cents!



This might be the best advice , Water and coffee is all good during the day and most nights for that matter but every once in awhile I like to sit around the campfire with friends and get that warm fuzzy feeling. I guess if for no other reason just because I can.
No worries, I won't beat my wife or drive . I'll have to read through all the other advice later this evening, A few caught my eye when skimming through them. Another thing I haven't tried is jello shots , do they keep on ice or in a fridge or do you make a batch and gobble it up right away ? Getting old and having a second Childhood is fun.

Didn't we have a discussion about beer and gout?
If you like to sit around the hot summer nights can't go wrong with some frozen daicquiris either bacardi or Morgan
What about a trying ale instead of beer

Rusty nail, scotch and drambuie but maybe not since whiskey makes you ill. At any rate, think I will pour me one anyway. I also like red roosters- cranberry juice, oj concentrate and vodka. 1.5qts cranberry, 1 6oz oj concentrate, 2 cups vodka. Mix and throw in freezer until slushy. Tastes like grapefruit juice in a way. That recipe is Emeril Lagasse's

We should all just rent a hall, each bring a bottle o something and hide the keys.

Kettle One and lemonade(you can use Crystal Light to avoid acid/gut rot from real lemonade). Bombay and ginger ale with a twist of lime. Bacardi Limon and caffeine free Diet Coke or 7up or lemonade or just water.

I love me a cold micro brewed on a warm summer night. And that warm fuzzy feeling is not to bad either. Lol
