Low Calorie Bourbon Recipe: Jim’s Peach Fuzz
Bourbon Heritage Month celebrations roll on in style with this peach creation cocktail that not only tastes flavorful, but stays low in calories allowing the party to continue all month long without fear of revelry taking its toll on the girlish figure. This bourbon twist on the classic Fuzzy Navel comes in at only 107.5 calories yet still packs in full flavor without a hint of diet taste. The secret is picking up Tropicana Trop 50 in the grocer’s refrigerated section. It comes in at 50% less calories and sugar than traditional Tropicana Orange Juice yet keeps up the usual taste in many cocktails. Keeping schnapps to a reasonable add-in level to taste rather than sugaring up a cocktail recipe will add flavor without packing a wallop in calories. It also allows the flavor of bourbon to still ring true.
