Low Calorie Classic Cocktails with a Modern Twist

April 10, 2015 by Greta Brinkley 3 Comments

Sooo…I’m a sucker for trashy TV. Like, I don’t even think you understand. Talk shows lure me in. Will they ever find out who the real father is? TV court shows are good too. You have to know getting someone a cell phone only leads to trouble. And the shows like Real Housewives? O.M.G…Can’t. Look. Away.

That’s part of the reason I’m soooo excited that Real Housewives of New York is back! And Bethenny has rejoined the cast. I lurve her! Can not wait!! To celebrate, here are a few modern twists on classic cocktails. All inspired by RHONY.

Low Cal Classic Cocktails with a Modern Twist

Pink Lemon Drop 400

Pink Lemon Drop

Lemon Drops are making a comeback. This one, made with raspberries, just feels extra special.

Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ parts Skinnygirl® Bare Naked Vodka
  • ½ part DeKuyper® Triple Sec
  • ½ part fresh lime juice
  • ½ part simple syrup
  • 2-4 fresh or frozen raspberries

 Naked Cosmo - 400

  • 1 ½ part white cranberry juice
  • Juice of ½ lime
  • Lemon wheel, for garnish
