So I get less calories if I add champagne to my oj than if I drink it straight? While logically, I know that's because the orange juice is more dilute, but still, that's an awesome trick!

That actually makes sense kscincotta. OJ is high in calories because there's a lot of sugar. Good, natural, found in fruit sugar - but it does have calories. I figure the nutrients outweigh the calories, though.

I'd try that one. You gotta try something new every once in a while...right?

Easter is all about the brunch. If you go out or stay in here is a little reference guide for a variety of drinks that often accompany any brunch from fresh squeezed fruit juice to the classic Bloody Mary (which is not really the best way to get your lycopene, but might be the most fun).

To check out the list, just read more

Fit's Tips: Making your own beverages is always better since you know exactly what's going in your glass. Try this Chambord Spritzer recipe from my dear friend Yum. And this Bellini made from blood oranges sounds deliciously refreshing in the morning.
