High Calorie Cocktails

780
Long Island Iced Tea: If your philosophy is the clearer the cocktail,
the fewer the calories ... think again! A long island takes the cake
with 780 calories.

740
Margarita: Would you like your 740 calories frozen or on the rocks?
Either way this south-of-the-border favorite is a cocktail catastrophe
for calorie counters.

644
Pina Colada: A pina colada might be the perfect tropical treat, but
everything has its price -- 644 calories per glass.

425
White Russian: Creamy drink lovers beware, 425 calories per serving
may convince you to cross over to the lighter side.

350
Mai Tai: A mai tai seems to go great with bathing suit weather, but
with 350 calories it may make you want to cover up.

314
Daiquiri: Although this fun favorite comes in many different flavors,
the 314 calories and 49 grams of carbs unfortunately stays the same.

250
Champagne Cocktail: This cocktail may be classy, but with 250
calories, it definitely has a kick!

200
Screwdriver:
The combination of orange juice and vodka may seem innocent, but those
calories sneak up on you -- 200 per serving.

160
Mojito: Don't be fooled by the fresh mint that disguises the mojito's
160 calories and shocking amount of sugar.

190
Tequila Sunrise: It may look pretty, but at 190 calories per drink,
the tequila sunrise ain't so sweet.
