96-Calorie Watermelon Twist Cocktail

Who doesn’t want to enjoy delicious cocktail drinks, but what about calories? Since typical margaritas clock in at around 500-600 calories, I started to think about healthier, low-cal versions of popular drinks and cocktails.

Want to know what Skinny Chef is sipping this summer? Try my super refreshing, low-cal cocktail, the Watermelon Twist made from watermelon juice, prosecco and Aperol – a rhubarb orange flavored liquor from Italy. It’s really easy to make, and has just 96 calories for 6 ounces.
