I'm always on the hunt for new cocktails that will let me sip and cheers without a total derail.I usually go for Vodka Soda or a glass of bubbles, but sometimes I want something a little more exciting. I know you girls get it.You all put in way to much work every day beinghealthy and fit to let a few drinks mess up your waistlines.

The Naughty Reindeer
This skinny cocktail from my friends Liz & Sara over at SuperSisterFitness.com is a deliciously sweet yet subtle fizzy drink with hints of warm blood orange and cinnamon spice.Plus,how adorable do these look?It's best to serve your Naughty Reindeers in tall champagne flutes, similar to the long slenderfaces of Santa's four-legged crew, but you can really use any glass you have on hand for these fun fizzy drinks.
The Brentwood Russian
An after dinner cocktail doesn't need to full of sugar and empty calories. The Brentwood Russian is a new twist on an old cocktail. Created by a loving group of friends on a cold night, this low sugar alternative won't disappoint. Looking for even less sugar and the same flavor swap the Kahlua for cold pressed coffee. If you swap for cold brew this sugar free cocktail will only run you 80 calories
