Whether you’re sippin’ poolside or drinking on the deck, it’s possible that drink in your hand is of the alcoholic variety. While alcohol in moderation is generally considered okay, the fact is that it adds too many empty calories to the diet and flabby inches to the waist. If you choose not to imbibe or prefer to save it for special occasions, you can still sip on something celebratory and refreshing all summer long—and save yourself from consuming extra calories and sugar in the process. Instead of sinking your weight loss goals, check out these 7 Low Calorie Summer Drinks: Non-Alcoholic Refreshers to try this summer.
