7 Low-Sugar Cocktails Perfect
for Happy Hour

If you're looking to cut back on sweets but you still want to go to happy hour, these drinks are for you! Read on for 7 low-sugar cocktails.

PALOMA

Made with tequila, citrus & grapefruit, you can easily make this one sugar-free by using grapefruit-flavored seltzer instead of soda.

SALT AND WIND

1

OLD-FASHIONED

Traditionally, Old Fashioned are sweetened with a sugar cube, but this recipe uses maple syrup instead, so it tops out at just 4g of sugar per serving.

COOKIE AND KATE

2

BLOODY MARY

Bloody Marys aren't sweetened, so they contain only the natural sugar from the tomato (here, about 5g per serving). Brunch has never tasted better.

ERIN MCDOWELL

3

GIMLET

Gimlets typically include simple syrup (8g to 11g of sugar per serving), so substitute for a zero-calorie simple syrup or nix the sweetener altogether.

CULINARY HILL

4

DIRTY MARTINI

Since martinis only contain alcohol (gin or vodka & dry vermouth), they're an easy choice if you're watching your sugar intake. (They contain only 1g of sugar).

THIS MESS IS OURS

5

WHITE WINE
SPRITZER

Most white wines only contain about 1 and a half g of sugar per 5oz serving. Garnish with lots of fresh mint and lemon if you're fancy.

WHAT'S GABY COOKING

6

LIGHTENED-UP
MARGARITA

This take calls for a teaspoon of agave nectar, which contains about 5g of sugar. But feel free to skip it or replace it with zero-calorie simple syrup.

COOKIE AND KATE
