Book Reviews of SkinnyTinis: All the Fun for Half the Calories
Book Review: So glad I tried this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I work out 6 days a week, but also like to have drinks with friends occasionally, and until now those two were at odds. This book helped reconcile the two by offering lots of drink recipes as well as loads of related tips and rules of thumb to keep in mind.
The book breaks down like this:
-Introduction (includes charts comparing many spirits and mixers' percentage of alcohol and calories)
-Getting Your Skinny Bar Ready (shopping tips, lists of essentials and extras, info on Skinnytinis website)
-Skinnytini Recipes (30)
-Skinny Cocktails Recipes (20)
-Love the Recipes - But What Do I Do When I'm Out? (10 recipes you can easily order, 10 that are a little trickier to order)
-The Skinny Tricks (know your garnishes, managing weight & social life, save calories & cash, earn your party, know your limits)
My own recommendations: the Skinny Sangria was a standout, the Candy Apple Martini was not so good.
Summary of SkinnyTinis: All the Fun for Half the Calories
How do we maintain or lose weight without giving up small pleasures in life like a night out on the town with the girls or a stiff martini after a long day at the office? That was the question that prompted me to begin looking at alcohol differently. Instead of trying to avoid it, I'd prefer to find ways to modify recipes and habits so I can still enjoy my favorites. Hence the advent of SkiinnyTinis! I was so proud of my concoctions and revelations that I felt compelled to share them with the rest of the social drinkers who share my struggle. The recipes in this book have been tested, and users have rated them just as tasty as their high-calorie counterparts (if not tastier). The only difference? They have less than half the calories.Exclusive Recipe Excerpts from SkinnyTinis
