Michelob Ultra Lime Cactus. <\/strong>While lime in a beer seems a tad weird in, like, January, in June it\u2019s pretty much perfect for summertime drinkin\u2019\u2014light with a little refreshing\u00a0citrus.\u00a0Plus, a 12-ounce serving contains just 95 calories.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Bella Bella Bellini. <\/strong>This\u00a0<strong><a title=\"bellini recipe\" href=\"http:\/\/fitbottomedgirls.com\/2010\/10\/a-lower-calorie-cocktail-that-actually-tastes-good\/\" target=\"_blank\">bellini recipe<\/a><\/strong> is a peach\u2014in a good way! Only 94 calories and with enough fruity flavor to make you feel like you\u2019re vacationing in the tropics even if you\u2019re\u00a0just\u00a0in your backyard, it\u2019s easy to make, too!<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.

You won\u2019t be fooled into thinking this is the margarita from your favorite Mexican restaurant, but it is just sweet enough to please, and it definitely satisfied our margarita tooth (like a sweet tooth for margaritas, obviously). At 100 cals for a 4-ounce serving, it\u2019s perfect treat for a summer day. Don\u2019t want to spend the dough on the pre-made stuff?

MGD 64Lemonade.<\/strong> This half-beer, half-lemonade\u00a0concoction\u00a0is super low in calories (64, like the name says) because it uses Splenda as a\u00a0sweetener. Although it has a bit of that fake-sugar aftertaste, if you can\u2019t decide between beer or a hard lemonade, this is your pick. This beer will just be out through Labor Day weekend, so stock up!<\/p>\n<p><strong>5.
