If you’re drinking at a holiday party, but don’t want to overdo it, ask for your drinks on the rocks. Melting ice will dilute cocktails, creating more for you to sip on longer. That is, of course, if you don’t suck it down too quickly. If you tend to finish drinks before everyone’s even taken a sip, ditch the straw. You’ll be surprised at how much longer your drink will last without it – and how much more you’ll enjoy it!
This is also a great way to indulge in holiday cocktails that might be loaded with fat and sugar. Sip your favorite on the rocks, and you’ll have more time to really enjoy it. Plus, the longer you’re sipping on your drink, the less refills you’re ordering, and that’s a good thing for both your waistline and your date!
