summer drinks

Bethennys version of the classic wine-based cocktail uses soda, rather than sugary syrups or liqueurs. The fizz adds a new element to the fruity drink without adding major calories.

Sans alcohol, this citrusy drink clocks in at a mere 34 calories per glass! Its soda, juice, and lemonade combined to create one ridiculously refreshing cooler thats perfect for your next family picnic.

Your post workout snack just got tastier. Choose your favorite berries: Strawberries contain potassium, which can lower blood pressure; blueberries add fiber and vitamin C to your diet; and raspberries are loaded with antioxidants.

The drink that started it all for Bethenny is just as satisfying as the tried and truly fattening original. Sit back and relax, knowing your diet is still on track with this slimmed-down version of a summer favorite.

You might call this a cousin of the famous Skinnygirl Margarita. Switch things up with cranberry instead of lime juice and youll have the perfect cocktail for a backyard dinner party.

Thanks to its expert use of muddled mint, the mojito could quite possibly be the most refreshing summer drink ever. Unfortunately, restaurant versions could cost you a few hundred calories. Bethenny?s, at just 150, really hits the spot!

Bethenny knows that where theres a tropical drink, the beach (and bathing suits) cant be far. Thats why her version of a frosty pi?a colada treat is made with coconut milk, not high-calorie cream of coconut.

The lightest drink on Bethennys list, this combination is as healthy for you as it is delicious.

Indulge in this mixture of rum, juice, and soda, and you might find yourself transported to a breezy ocean somewhereor at least make it easier to pretend.

This Skinnylicious summer beverage takes only minutes to make and contains just 112 calories per 12 ounce serving!
