Come Labor Day, your lady friends probably like to imbibe as much as you do. But, they’re probably a little more calorie conscious because you’re such a shallow jerk who’s obsessed with a woman’s appearance.
Fortunately, the mixologists at Slim Lizzy’s know what a cruel, fickly place the universe — and your Labor Day cookout — can be.So they offer “slim social cocktails for women.”
Their pre-mixed Margarita and Cosmopolitan recipes come in under 200 calories. They’re also “bloat conscious,” according to Slim Lizzy’s – because nothing puts the kibosh on Labor Day festivities like a beautiful woman who belches like a Bolivian Swamp Yak.
To demonstrate how these mixes can blend into various cocktails, we have recipes to share below.
Belch responsibility.
