Did you know that your average piña colada has more calories than a Big Mac? According to an article in Forbes about the most fattening cocktails, that’s the case. According to their calculations, a piña colada will run about 650 calories, about 100 more than a Big Mac. Other heavy hitters include a Long Island iced tea (780 calories) and a margarita (740 calories). Instead of cocktails with soda and half a dozen different kinds of booze, nutritionists in the article recommend having one type of alcohol on the rocks or with a splash of tonic water instead.
Remember, just because it has a fruit garnish, that doesn't make it healthy.
