Drinks for Bellying Up to The Bar With Less Belly Vacation isn't the ideal time to start counting calories, but for hotel guests still preparing for bikini season, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts doesn't see why you shouldn't have your cocktail and lose weight too. Its "skinny drink" initiative has encouraged bartenders at several of its hotels and restaurants to offer drinks with fewer calories and healthier ingredients this spring. In Vancouver, the Fairmont Pacific Rim's lobby lounge is serving a Bali Hai, pear- and thyme-infused gin mixed with fresh lime, ginseng tincture, coconut water and agave nectar instead of simple syrup, making it less than 200 calories. The Royal York in Toronto has developed a series of "Skinny Sips," each 250 calories or less, made from house-made sugar-free liqueurs, fresh herbs from its rooftop garden and honey from its beehives. "Let's be honest, if you're really counting calories, you probably shouldn't be drinking," Lori Holland, the executive director of public relations at Fairmont, said. But that's no fun. With these drinks, you're getting your cake, just in a different way.
