Let’s face it, who doesn’t like to drink? Especially in summer, going out for a drink is synonymous with relaxation and fun. In addition, the cocktails that many bars, pubs, cafes and other places offer are often temptations: fresh, colorful, sugary, as well as alcoholic. But they are also incredible and unexpected calorie bombs , even three hundred calories. After struggling to cut our food, drinking a couple of cocktails threatens to ruin our efforts. Furthermore, alcohol inhibits the metabolism, slowing it down : the sugars that we absorb so easily convert into fat, we burn them much less than a hearty Sunday lunch at mom’s home.
Well, even if the truth hurts, now knowing that drinking can be more than an exception to the rule, it can really make us fail the diet or make us fat if we are not on a diet: if we then add what we are able to swallow in accompaniment to the cocktails , then repeating or even drinking and eating throughout the evening is equivalent to an invitation to the wedding, in terms of calories

In short, if we want to avoid disaster, we aim for classics like those in the list, avoiding overly liqueur cocktails, with various syrups. The calories of alcohol can be less if we focus on dry wine-based drinks, with unsweetened fruit juice or pureed fruit (frozen).
