There are certain occasions where I would like to sip on a glass of wine, or something just to be more "normal". For instance, I have been avoiding local social situations as I feel silly just going into a bar to enjoy the entertainment/socialization, yet only ordering water. i dont do ANY pop...but was wondering about something to order that I can just sip on all night. Any advice??

How about wine? Very little sugar, and not too high in alcohol, either.

I use wine , and sip for about 2-3 hours , you can also ice it down so it looks like you have more.

Also I have taken my own poweraid zero and put it in a wine glass, not as much fun , but it got me through :)

Can always add some Crystal Light to your water. Coffee?

Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!

I'll drink an occasional light beer.The carbonation used to bother me,it doesn't anymore.

I just got sick and tired of being sick and tired.

I love moscato...its a sweet wine...would the sugar be too much in that wine?

I was worried about wine being too sugary? It isn't??! What type would you recommend. I always preferred a white zinfandel, or something like that. I also thought about a lite beer...but was concerned about the carbonation. I am afraid of hard liquor and I don't drink any fruit juice at all because of the sugar. Thanks for the advice!
