Low carb eating doesn't suck!

[nhmajik]

Chrissy, I am so glad you are here! Your food looks delicious and I am excited for your good results. I can't wait for spring to see all your ridiculous fresh veggie food porn. You are one of the best most innovative cooks I know, so we are really lucky to have you!

Thank you Chris, I was giving myself 30 days to see how I did. I'm quite pleased with how I'm feeling after 30 days ...I'm going to keep going. As far as cooking, thank you for that compliment...however I'm not feeling very innovative lately. Getting to learn more about keto friendly ingredients and this thread really inspired me.

Ok, I have not drank being on low carb...but have heard the warnings that your tolerance is lower and hangovers can be brutal. Not a beer or wine drinker and really not into straight up alcohol. So if I can only have one or two I want to really enjoy it. I'm more into Margarita's, Chocolate Martini's, Lemon Drop's, Mojito's...stuff like that. Anyone have any low carb recipes for those type of drinks or any other drink you think is delicious? I seen this White Christmas Margarita and think it could be low carb by switching triple sec for a little orange extract, and a sugar free rim.
1 (14-oz.) can coconut milk
12 oz. silver tequila
8 oz. triple sec
1/2 c. lime juice
2 c. ice
1/2 c. Mint, for garnish
1 lime, sliced into rounds for garnish
Lime wedge, for rimming glass
Sanding sugar, for rimming glass
Cranberries, for garnish

I seem to get drunk easier like 15 or so beers and I'm pretty fucked up but I don't have hangovers

I have not tried this, but in doing a google search for low carb margarita, I found this which is available at target. Might be worth a try? Quite a few things came up on a search, and like so many other things it seems to be a case of trial and error (with lots of errors!).

I saw this posted on FB by a friend. It looks good

Dawn,
Those look good and a great keto choice, I wouldn't like it though because I can't do runny eggs lol.

I’m so sorry I didn’t get to CB with Baja Bobs margarita mix. It’s here in my bar cabinet ! I guess my girls will drink it at Christmas. Hope you find something you like!

Try mixing that with Sprite Zero my favorite. Also some lacroix flavors are good and desani makes a sparkling lime that I really like. BK (before keto) Malibu coconut rum was my favorite but it has too many carbs so cherry vodka is my current choice. Just google the carbs some vodkas are high too.

Thanks Laurie, I bought some club soda and some Sparkling Ice Water- Tangerine...wasn't sure what to mix with. I will try the Sprite Zero though, sounds good.

Garlic Tuscan chicken night in the rotation. And I made a huge pot of wedding soup for the rest of them.
