A Toast To Fresh, Festive Cocktails
Using produce and herbs instead of syrupy mixers can cut calories and boost flavor.

The mixologists at ReBar in Phoenix, cut back on the alcohol and focus on organic, multi-distilled spirits and fresh citrus to brighten this mixer-free spin on a margarita. It has about 100 calories, a fraction of what you'd find in the typical citrus-sour treat.

1 ounce vodka

1 lime, juiced

Splash fresh orange juice

2 ounces calorie-free citrus soda

2 ounces club soda

Lime wedge (garnish)

Mix vodka and juices in a cocktail shaker with 1 cup of ice. Strain into a tall glass. Finish with sodas. Garnish with lime. [Copyright 2012 National Public Radio]
