Hi ladies! Have I got something super exciting for y’all today. I was lucky enough to get to try the SMIRNOFF Sorbet Light Vodka the raspberry pomegranate flavor and decided that I needed to come up with a perfect drink for Valentine’s day and I had to do it to compliment the sorbet-inspired vodka fruit flavor, it contains strong berry notes and a cool, refreshing finish. After thinking for a bit I decided that this would also go perfect in my quest to #losethefluff this year since it’s only only 78 calories per 1.5 fl. oz. which is pretty fabulous! As I mentioned in the 25 Healthy Recipes round-up the other day I still want to be able to indulge in the finer things in life, and the SMIRNOFF Sorbet Light Vodka is so light on the calories that you can drink a few and not break that ‘diet’, which is pretty fantastic!
So I wanted something sweet to compliment the fruit flavors of the sorbet light vodka and I decided that cranberry juice and and a bit of soda would be the best way to go to get an awesome fruity flavor! This recipe is super easy to make & will accompany your girls night or Valentine’s Day dinner-in perfectly!
- 1.5 oz. SMIRNOFF Sorbet Light Raspberry Pomegranate
- 2 oz. lemon-lime soda
- 1.5 oz. cranberry juice
- Pour in a cocktail shaker over ice. Shake well and pour.
For an added bit of fancy and just plain fun which you all know I love, grab some red and white sprinkles and dip your glass in some cold water and then into the sprinkles to line the rim for some sweetness.
I could absolutely drink this every night, it fits right into my #losethefluff plan and can go on the menu for your next date night and you won’t have to worry about blowing all of those daily calories on alcohol!
Oh man, and to think I can’t try this for three months, suck! This makes me miss being a bartender and expert mixologist. You wouldn’t believe it’s possible to make Bacardi 151 and Wild Turkey 101 taste delicious by themselves, let alone together, but the shot I make with them is pretty much my pride and joy, ha ha ha!
I love me a fruity drink! I’d probably add a splash of lemon or lime for zing!
That looks so good! I printed it out to take with me to Nashville in a couple of weeks so I can make sure I have the right stuff. haha
Oh this sounds YUMMY! I’ll have to try it with your recipe!
I think we are sisters that were separated at birth! You are a girl after my own heart!!! Love this drink recipe!
This looks so yum!!!
I normally don’t drink alcohol, except for rare occasions, but this cocktail looks very delicious 🙂 I would love to mix it for my friends one day!
It’s so pretty! There are so many flavors of vodka I haven’t tried. I think I hear about a new one every day. This looks like the perfect one for Valentine’s Day 🙂
That sounds fantastic! 🙂
That looks sooo delicious!
This drink sounds so good and refreshing!!!
This looks DELISH!!!
seriously, this needs to get in my mouth now.
Yummmm, I basically only enjoy fruity alcohol drinks so this is right up my alley. I mean… It would be… if I were 21… 😉 Only 2 more months!!!
Sounds delicious! Plus you can make it with diet pop and light cranberry!
Sounds tasty!
Man vodka is getting so many other flavors, I remember back when it was just the original flavor lol. That being said I think my husband would love this flavor more than me 😉
YUMMY, oh this looks so good! I’m making it tonight!
That looks delicious!!
OMG that looks incredible!
OMG this looks delish!
This looks delicious. I’m all about delicious boozy drinks in a rimmed glass. Have you tried the Bethenny Frankel Skinny Girl drinks? I wasn’t impressed with those but they are supposed to be low calorie too.
Awesome, thank you for sharing. Looks delicious and I am always looking for a way to enjoy cocktails that are low cal.
