You may not know this but I don’t especially like beer. I never have. I much prefer the flavor of a good cocktail or mixed drink. Some of the premade ready-to-drink cocktails that you can buy in stores now are made with malt. While I don’t particularly have an issue with that, some folks do, either because it means there’s gluten in the beverage or because it leaves them feeling bloated.
Slim Lizzy has come out with two ready-to-drink cocktails that are malt-free and gluten-free. And for those of you watching your weight, these drinks are only 80 caloreis each! Slim Lizzy’s currently has two flavors – Margarita and Cosmopolitan. I received samples of both flavors. For me I loved the convenience of the 8 oz can. No need to worry about how to store what’s left in a bottle. Just pour over ice and enjoy!
You can even use these cocktails as ingredients in other cocktails. The folks at Slim Lizzy’s have some recipes on their site. With their permission I’m sharing one of them with you, it’s just perfect for fall. Check it out!

This sounds really good. I will have to give this a try myself on a night I want to just relax with hubby.

Not only do I not like beer, never have, but these days I don't even drink wine or cocktails. I guess I just lost my taste for it altogether over the years. These do seem like a great alternative to calorie laden cocktails!
