Low Calorie Tequila Sunrise Recipe - Sleep Deprivation Can be Confused as a Hangover

We can link to your site naturally in our blogs by referring to some interesting content, useful tools, or relevant services you provide. As examples we've linked to a couple of sites that could link to us; we write on similar or related topics.

You could mention, for example, our beer comparison tool by copying the text below onto one of your pages:

I found a cool <a href="http://www.happybreath.net/tools/beercomparison.php">beer comparison tool</a> at HappyBreath.Net. It lets you compare from a database of over 200 beers. It knows the alcohol content for all and the calorie content for most. It compares two beers and tells which has fewer calories per alcohol and which has a better price per alcohol. You can even add unlisted beers to compare!

Drink

Today we have a classic; the Tequila Sunrise drink recipe. This is a low calorie version (the link shows the standard, low cal, and low cost versions).

2 oz Sauza® Extra Gold Tequila
2 oz Pomegranate Juice
2 oz Fresh squeezed orange juice
Ice - serve on the rocks

We used our database of over 1000 drink ingredients to calculate the calories and cost per standard drink. This version has 141 calories per standard drink (as opposed to 204 in the idrink.com version). The low cost version uses Washington State Liquor Prices to calculate $1.05 per standard drink (as opposed to $2.63). Washington has the highest liquor tax in the union, but you can convert the prices from the database for your state using our State Sin Tax Calculator. We're especially proud of this low-calorie recipe. We shaved 30% of the calories without impacting taste or consistency and without using artificial sweeteners. We did this by substituting a pomegranate juice for a portion of the orange juice plus the Grenadine, which is basically pomegranate syrup. J

Think

Sleep deprivation is often confused with a hangover. We wrote back in April about getting a quick buzz on a work night. The reasoning here is to ensure a good night's sleep. People often stay up later than they intend because they are drinking and having a good time. If they feel like crap the next day, they assume its a hangover. We have found a stronger correlation between hours of sleep and how we feel than how much (to a point) or whether we have had anything to drink the night before. Milk Thistle, Folic Acid, and hydration are all good ways to mitigate the potential for a hangover - but a good night sleep trumps all. Finish drinking an hour or two before going to bed and get seven to eight hours of sleep and you should feel fine the next day.

This is pretty darn funny. I don't think this fella will have much luck trying to fool a breathalyzer after trying to take a sip from it!
